By "getting them supported" I mean a Solaris newbie like myself can, without a 
load of work, get their graphics card working with Xorg on SPARC. Of course I'm 
mainly interested in the one on my Ultra 10. The XRender extension is needed so 
that Gnome 2.16 runs at what I would consider a reasonable speed on my Ultra 
10. By "reasonable speed" I mean similar to CDE on XSun has at the moment, whic 
his quite usable for me.

Perhaps the wsfb driver that is being worked on will be good enough for my 
purposes, but it would still be nice to have the accelerated drivers working 
since they are already out there.

Cheers

Andrew.
