Re: hp 712 (X11)

Thanks Brian,

Mickey says : the xserver builds though does not work...

So, should i do some configuration to make it work on OpenBSD ?
or is there a component missing in OpenBSD that prevent to use some 
similar feature as framebuffer ?

I asked  Mickey about that : is it because of a lack of some connection 
with graphics drivers ?

If you have some knowledge about why it does not work i'm interested in.

"Artist" is the name of the hp 712/60 graphics card, right ?

And sti is only for console purpose : am i right ? I have seen stifb.c 
file in linux sources. Maybe i should go into that file for details ?
