I am using the latest, 6.1.2, installed from the full ISO image. They changed quite a bit the video part in NetBSD 6, overhauled the console and seem to have forked the TCX X11 driver to add hardware acceleration.
Oh that's interesting. Is there anything here that could be shared with a potential CG6 driver of any sort?
FWIW for testing you could also try my CG3 patchset here: https://github.com/mcayland/qemu/tree/cg3-final but you'll probably want to replace the QEMU,cgthree.bin ROM in QEMU with the one from OpenBIOS SVN trunk.
I will try !
Great let me know how you get on :)
I have tried your CG3 branch.
NetBSD 6 can start and the console driver successfully detects a CG3. (The next-property, keyboard and esp.c patches are still necessary...)
The 'small' problem is that there is no X CG3 driver installed ! Available drivers are CG14, LEO, CG6, FFB (creator 3D) and TCX. Both CG3 and TCX were removed from latest Xorg distribution (7.7), I guess TCX is still in NetBSD because they forked it themselves.
The CG3 driver works with NetBSD 5.1 though.
