NAME
       efb - device driver for XVR-50, XVR-100, and XVR-300 graphics

DESCRIPTION
       The  efb	 driver is the graphics device driver for the XVR-50, XVR-100,
       and XVR-300 frame buffers for SPARC systems. This driver provides  ker‐
       nel  terminal  emulator	support for the text console, and frame buffer
       support for the Xorg server.

       This driver is incompatible with the Xsun server. To use these graphics
       devices	with  Xsun,  the -xserver option to fbconfig(1M) must be used.
       This enables the Xsun server and	 switch	 to  the  pfb(7D)  driver  for
       XVR-50 and XVR-100, or the nfb(7D) driver for XVR-300.

       The  efb driver responds to the VIS_GETIDENTIFIER ioctl defined in vis‐
       ual_io(7I) with the identification string SUNWefb.
