[parisc-linux] X on J5000

[Jeremy Drake]

Sorry, no tux.  But, due to extenuating circumstances I had to boot
serial console, so the display wasn't initted until late in the boot
process.
So, if the fb is not working, why wouldn't it be and what can I do to make
it work.
Here's the /proc/pci entry for the card

  Bus  4, device   7, function  0:
    3D controller: PCI device 103c:108b (Hewlett-Packard Company) (rev 3).
      IRQ 160.
      Master Capable.  Latency=255.
      Prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xfb000000 [0xfbffffff].
      Non-prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xfa000000 [0xfaffffff].

Here's from dmesg

	In the beginning there was data.  The data was without form and
null, and darkness was upon the face of the console; and the Spirit of
IBM was moving over the face of the market.  And DEC said, "Let there
be registers"; and there were registers.  And DEC saw that they
carried; and DEC separated the data from the instructions.  DEC called
the data Stack, and the instructions they called Code.  And there was
evening and there was morning, one interrupt.
