Cool, thanks for providing this information. It turns out that this
driver (sunxvr1000.c) was added in March 2010, so I was not aware of
its existence. Glad to hear it works.
In related news, I tried to run Xorg from wheezy on my machine and the
card (which uses e3d framebuffer from sunxvr500.c) appears to be much
more functional in X than it was last time I tried. The colors are all
wrong, and there are vertical black stripes crossing the screen, but
at least I can open a terminal window, etc. I'm going to see whether I
can tweak the framebuffer driver to improve the situation.
Best regards,
