+.Sh NAME
+.Nm pninek
+.Nd Weitek Power9000 accelerated frame buffer
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "btcham0 at obio?"
+.Cd "pninek at sbus? slot ? offset ?"
+.Cd "wsdisplay* at pninek?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+is a color frame buffer with graphics acceleration, embedded in the
+.Tn "Tadpole SPARCbook"
+3 laptop.
+It is based on the
+.Tn "Weitek Power9000"
+video processor and a
+.Tn Brooktree
+Bt445
+.Sq Chameleon
+RAMDAC.
+.Pp
+Due to specifics of the video hardware on the
+.Tn Tadpole SPARCbook
+3, the complete driver is split in two parts:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width Ds -compact
+.It Nm btcham
+RAMDAC interface
+.It Nm pninek
+Video controller interface
+.El
+.Pp
+The combination of both
+.Nm btcham
+and
+.Nm
+drivers interfaces the frame buffer with the
+.Xr wscons 4
+console framework.
+They do not provide direct device driver entry points
+but make their function available via the internal
+.Xr wsdisplay 4
+interface.
+.Pp
+If the
+.Xr tctrl 4
+device is also configured, the
+.Nm
+will be powered down when the lid of the laptop
+is closed or the screen is blanked.
