33.Sh NAME
34.Nm machfb
35.Nd "accelerated color frame buffer"
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "device machfb"
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Tn ATI Mach64
41family of chips are color frame buffers with graphics acceleration.
42The
43.Nm
44driver interfaces those frame buffers with the
45.Xr syscons 4
46console driver.
47.Pp
48.Tn ATI Mach64
49chips are very common as low-end graphics chips in
50.Tn PCI
51based
52.Tn UltraSPARC
53systems.
54They are found on-board in
55.Tn Sun Blade 100 ,
56.Tn Sun Blade 150 ,
57.Tn Sun Ultra 5
58and
59.Tn Sun Ultra 10
60as well as on
61.Tn Sun
62OEM mainboards like the
63.Tn Sun AXe .
64They are also used on add-on cards like the
65.Tn Sun PGX
66and
67.Tn Sun PGX64 .
68.Pp
69The
70.Nm
71driver requires the chip which it is supposed to drive to be also
72supported by the
73.Tn Open Firmware ,
74either by a built-in FCode driver package of the on-board firmware
75or by additional FCode on the add-on card.
76As a matter of course
77.Tn UltraSPARC
78systems with an on-board
79.Tn ATI Mach64 chip
80also have a built-in FCode driver package for this chip.
81There are also mainboards like the
82.Tn Sun AX1105
83and
84.Tn Sun AXi
85boards however,
86which have built-in FCode for certain
87.Tn ATI Mach64
88chips although they are not equipped with an on-board one.
89Mainboards with built-in FCode for certain
90.Tn ATI Mach64
91chips can be used with any add-on card which is based on one of those
92chips,
93including cards which are equipped with x86 firmware and intended for
94use in PCs.
95Otherwise an add-on card which comes with its own FCode like the
96.Tn Sun PGX
97or
98.Tn Sun PGX64
99has to be used.
