NAME
       scfb - video driver for wsdisplay framebuffer device

SYNOPSIS
       Section "Device"
	 Identifier "devname"
	 Driver	"scfb"
	 ...
       EndSection

DESCRIPTION
       scfb is an Xorg driver for OpenBSD and NetBSD wsdisplay framebuffer de-
       vices.	This  is  a non-accelerated driver.  The following framebuffer
       depths are supported: 1,	8, 16 and 24, given that the wsdisplay	device
       underneath supports them.
       A  StaticGray  monochrome  visual  is  provided for depth 1, all	visual
       types are supported for depth 8 and a TrueColor visual is supported for
       the other depths.  Multi-head configurations are	supported.

SUPPORTED HARDWARE
       The scfb	driver supports	all hardware  where  a	wsdisplay  framebuffer
       driver  is available on OpenBSD and NetBSD.  On OpenBSD,	currently this
       includes	OpenBSD/macppc,	 OpenBSD/sgi,  OpenBSD/sparc,  OpenBSD/sparc64
       and  OpenBSD/alpha on TGA graphics cards.  It also supports NetBSD/i386
       using wsdisplay on vesafb(4).

CONFIGURATION DETAILS
       Please refer to xorg.conf(5) for	general	configuration  details.	  This
       section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.

       For  this driver	it is not required to specify modes in the Screen sec-
       tion of the configuration file.	The scfb driver	picks up the currently
       used video mode from the	framebuffer driver and uses it.	  Video	 modes
       specifications in the configuration file	are ignored.

       The following driver options are	supported in the Device	section:

       Option "device" "string"
	      The  wsdisplay  framebuffer device to use.  Default for OpenBSD:
	      /dev/ttyC0.  Default for NetBSD: /dev/ttyE0.

       Option "ShadowFB" "boolean"
	      Enable or	disable	use of	the  shadow  framebuffer  layer.   See
	      shadowfb(4x)  for	 further  information.	Default: on for	depths
	      were it is supported, off	otherwise.
	      ShadowFB is currently not	supported on monochrome	displays.

       Option "Rotate" "string"
	      Enable rotation of the display. The supported  values  are  "CW"
	      (clockwise,  90  degrees),  "UD"	(upside	down, 180 degrees) and
	      "CCW" (counter clockwise,	270  degrees).	 Implies  use  of  the
	      shadow framebuffer layer.	 Default: off.
