Andy doesn't really have a problem. I think the behaviour he's seeing is
the documented behaviour. It might be unfortunate, but that's not the same!

There are more than one. As far as I know, it's the case that -- as they
say -- multiple frame-buffers aren't supported, but falling back to the
on-board frame-buffer works fine.
There's something in the documentation about trouble with the SCSI in
really old Suns, so I suppose it's possible that there are other minor
hardware differences.
