.Dd February 16, 1994 .Dt CGSIX 4 sparc .Os .Sh NAME .Nm cgsix .Nd Sun accelerated 8-bit color frame buffer .Sh SYNOPSIS .Cd "cgsix* at sbus? slot ? offset ?" Pq sun4c/sun4m .Cd "cgsix0 at obio0 addr 0xfb000000 level 4" Pq sun4/300 .Cd "cgsix0 at obio0 addr 0x0b000000 level 4" Pq sun4/100 .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm cgsix is a memory based color frame buffer. It supports the minimal ioctl's needed to run .Xr X 1 . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bwtwo 4 , .Xr cgtwo 4 , .Xr cgthree 4 , .Xr cgfour 4 , .Xr cgeight 4 , .Xr tcx 4 .Sh BUGS Several firmware revisions on .Nm boards have a terminal emulation bug that shows up when using the screen control sequences for inserting blank lines near the bottom end of the screen (i.e., the control sequences produced by the .So al Sc and So AL Sc capabilities found in the .Xr termcap 5 database). The most likely occasion for triggering this bug is to use a full-screen editor such as .Xr vi 1 on the workstation's console.

p To work around this you can set your .Ev TERM environment variable to the .Sq sun-cgsix terminal definition which is the same as the .Sq sun entry, except that the .Sq al and .Sq AL capabilities have been removed (at the cost of making the scrolling of the screen slower).
