Maybe, maybe not - I didn't check. But somehow I doubt it.

Hmm, doesn't the cg14 have at least some sort of blitter-like thingie? 
Is it so slow that nobody could be bothered or did just nobody care 
enough? I suspect the latter since the suncg6 driver was unaccelerated 
too, until I added the missing bits. And for its age the cg6's blitter 
is far from slow.

have fun
