22  * Several Sun color frame buffers use some kind of Brooktree video
23  * DAC (e.g., the Bt458, -- in any case, Brooktree make the only
24  * decent color frame buffer chips).
25  *
26  * Color map control on these is a bit funky in a SPARCstation.
27  * To update the color map one would normally do byte writes, but
28  * the hardware takes longword writes.  Since there are three
29  * registers for each color map entry (R, then G, then B), we have
30  * to set color 1 with a write to address 0 (setting 0's R/G/B and
31  * color 1's R) followed by a second write to address 1 (setting
32  * color 1's G/B and color 2's R/G).  Software must therefore keep
33  * a copy of the current map.
34  *
35  * The colormap address register increments automatically, so the
36  * above write is done as:
37  *
38  *	bt->bt_addr = 0;
39  *	bt->bt_cmap = R0G0B0R1;
40  *	bt->bt_cmap = G1B1R2G2;
41  *	...
42  *
43  * Yow!
44  *
45  * Bonus complication: on the cg6, only the top 8 bits of each 32 bit
46  * register matter, even though the cg3 takes all the bits from all
47  * bytes written to it.
