23.Nd inextricable frame buffer
24.Sh SYNOPSIS
25.Cd "ifb* at pci?"
26.Cd "wsdisplay* at ifb?"
27.Sh DESCRIPTION
28The
29.Nm
30driver attempts to support various frame buffer cards based on the
313DLabs
32.Sq Wildcat
33chips, such as the
34Sun
35Expert3D-Lite,
36Expert3D,
37XVR-500,
38XVR-600
39and
40XVR-1200
41boards.
42It does not provide direct device driver entry points
43but makes its functions available via the internal
44.Xr wsdisplay 4
45interface.
46.Sh DISPLAY RESOLUTION
47If the
48.Nm
49frame buffer is used as the console display, a different resolution than
50the default 1152x900 can be selected by changing the OpenPROM environment.
51To change the default resolution, type the following:
52.Pp
53.Em \   ok
54setenv
55.Em output-device
56screen:r1280x1024x76
57.Pp
58to change to a 76Hz 1280x1024 resolution.
59.Pp
60The
61.Nm
62frame buffer accepts the following resolutions:
