Hi James,

the stiFB driver should already be compiled into the kernel. 
If you see the Tux Penguin at bootup the stiFB driver is
active - if  you don't see it install a newer kernel.

Then apt-get the necessary XFree86 packages and
read the FAQ at http://www.parisc-linux.org/faq/index.html
FAQ entries #12 and #13 should be most interesting for you.
The Link in FAQ entry #12 will also point you to a XF86Config-4 
file which you might use to start with.

Best regards,
Helge
