I use Woody with xserver-xfree86 on a Sparc 20 with SX (cgfourteen)
framebuffer.  From Xfree86 4.1.0 docs:

"4.1.0:

    Sun BW2 framebuffers are supported by the "sunbw2" driver. Sun CG3
framebuffers are supported by the "suncg3" driver. Sun CG6 framebuffers
are supported by the "suncg6" driver. Sun CG14 framebuffers are
supported by the "suncg14" driver. Sun FFB framebuffers are supported by
the "sunffb" driver. Sun LEO framebuffers are supported by the "sunleo"
driver. Sun TCX framebuffers are supported by the "suntcx" driver. "


All of these "drivers" are components of xserver-xfree86 (i.e. you don't
use xserver-xsun anymore), and are chosen via directives inside the
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file.
