Hi,
i found the reason for my slow desktop display on the Sun Blade 100:
it is using the fbdev driver.
The machine only has the onboard Ati Rage XL card, but is not using
the xorg ati driver because it seems to be incomplete:

I have a Sun Blade 100 running the latest debian sparc release.
So far, so good, the desktop is working with a usable Mate, but with
slow window movement. Marco is only working in no-compositing mode,
otherwise window borders are missing.
The original hardware (m64/Rage XL) is of course incapable

As a matter of fact, I do. I had a software RAID running on 2 SATA disks
on a Promise SATA300 TX4 controller and even built a custom mounting
bracket for my old Ultra 10 to hold more than one disk.

Probably most PCI cards supported by kernel ?
