    hi

    I am unsuccessfully trying to get my Sparc station 10 to run the X
    server. The error i get is

    #X
    (WW) SUNCG3: No matching Device section for instance (BusID
    SBUS:/iommu@f,e0000000/sbus@f,e0001000/cgthree@0,0) found
    (EE) No devices detected.

    the device is
    ok > show-devs
    <edit>
    /iommu@f,e0000000/sbus@f,e0001000/cgthree@0,0
    <edit>

    my questions are -

    Is the suncg3 the appropriate driver for this frame buffer?
    What should the BusID read?
            BusID "SBUS:/iommu@f,e0000000/sbus@f,e0001000/cgthree@0,0" ?
    Could this be the mouse?
            What mouse configuration could I use?
            I am using a sun keyboard with the mouse attached to the keyboard.
    If you have this configuration could you send me your XF86Config-4?
    This is a fresh install of the testing track with the new installer
    bata 4 netinst CD Image. It did not detect it in the install nor was I
    able to put in SBUS when it asked for my device running
    dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86. Should I file a Install report or is
    this equipment not supported anymore? If I need to send an Install
    report can someone guide me to the guide?

    Have tried both xserver-xfree86 and xserver-xfree86-dbg.
    I want to run the X server like this -
    X -query <myotherbox>

    junk
