It looks like we will have more framebuffers beside TCX in the near future. One way to use them would be to make new machines combining a base machine name with a framebuffer name, like ss5tcx and ss5cg3, but I guess this would produce too many machines if we have more than 2 framebuffers.
Should the "-vga" option be (mis)used for selecting a framebuffer? They are not called "VGA" in the wild, but maybe the name VGA is obvious enough for a modern user? After all there is already a "-hda" option in the SPARCStation-5 emulation command line, although in the non-emulating world no one calls scsi disk "hda". Or should an architecture-specific option, like -framebuffer be added? -- Regards, Artyom Tarasenko Linux/sparc and solaris/sparc under qemu blog: http://tyom.blogspot.com/search/label/qemu
