platinumfb
— Apple
Platinum framebuffer driver
platinumfb0 at mainbus?
The platinumfb
driver provides support for
Apple Platinum graphics devices found in a couple early model PowerMacs such
as the 7200.
This driver should support console output (with raster ops) and X (in unaccelerated modes).
It may be required to set the output-device to 'platinum' in Open Firmware.
The platinumfb
device driver appeared in
NetBSD 7.0.
The platinumfb
driver was written by
Sean Cole.
Early PowerMacs with the platinumfb
device
may not work through Open Firmware.
X(7) is pretty slow.
