RE:[Linux-fbdev-devel] Whats the scoop for the apollo framebuffers?

Yes, the only functionnal one was dnfb.c, the others were for testing
purpose:
Developpers Peter (and me for a less big part) had only the mono frame
buffer board.
There is color boards for Apollo DN workstation for which I have docs, but
I no longuer
have access to the hardware, color fb or Apollo. Basic color fb management
is similar to
the mono one.
Apollo hardware is ISA based, perhaps someone still have some working one.
I stoped working on Linux Apollo port because of lack of hardware.
