If he's got a 24-bit graphics card for a sun3/60, it's probably going to 
be a P4 cgeight.  NetBSD/sparc has an expirimental driver for this, but 
it's not well tested.

It would probably be "easy" to port the P4 stuff I did to the sun3 port, 
and that would enable you to use (read: debug :-) the cgeight driver :-)
