I'm curious. I was looking over a Sun Framebuffer FAQ (managed
by a Sun engineer), and it mentioned an "add on board" for a SS10 which
is effectively the SX 24 bit video capabilities even when you don't
have the SS10 SX motherboard (or perhaps I'm interpreting it to my
advantage 8-) ) They even mentioned it being something you could add
to a SS20 Has anybody ever seen this beast? Anybody know how well it
works/worked? I'm stuck here with 8 bit graphics on my SS10's cause
they never made anything that I though I'd like...had access to a few of
the different ones via work, but they always seemed so slow compared to
the 8bit ones I never really botherd looking at them. Now, I actually
could use it for some of the video stuff I have, but it seems that aside
from the SX there really isn't any 24bit card that Solaris supports on
a SBUS system (unless you've got an Ultra2 with UPA).
So, can these boards be had? Or even an SS10SX motherboard?
Earl
