tsutsui 2c8ccd9ea5 Add 98542 and 98543 framebuffers to supported "Graphics Devices" section.
I hope someone will sync a list of supported devices in port wiki pages
with one in this installation notes.

uwe d9e38a11b0 distrib/notes: add back the sentence final dot after .Lk
It was omitted in previous b/c of a bug in .Lk that was fixed
in PR bin/58074
2024-03-25 13:35:28 +00:00
martin 51641d9aad Use single-arg "Lk" macro for a link so we can get reasonable results
both in .more and .html output (still a bit odd, but better than before IMHO).

uwe a737087573 Make .Nx \*V happy for current builds.
I'm not sure why mdoc complains here (not the technical reason, but
the pragmatic purpose).  My best guess is that it wants to catch
mistakes like .Fx 1.6.1 (instead of .Nx 1.6.1).  I'm not entirely
convinced this doesn't create more problems that it solves.

No objections in the 15 years since this was proposed netbsd-docs.

maya f54624bd74 Move DRM-driver firmware from base to its own set, gpufw
This set is only installed on amd64,i386,evbarm.
This set is installed on minimal installs and on install media, in
case someone needs it for basic driver functionality.

Comments:
Switched to a single MK tunable for it - that is probably unneeded.

An upcoming DRM update will include even fatter firmware, and we'd
like to minimize the impact of it.

tsutsui 8ea52577e2 For netboot via DHCP, "next-server" in dhcpd.conf(5) is mandatory.
Pointed out by Anders Gustafsson on port-hp300@.
 https://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-hp300/2021/04/21/msg000201.html

Should be pulled up to netbsd-8 and netbsd-9.

XXX: kernel should use the dhcpd/bootp server address for nfsroot
     if the specified next-server (siaddr) is 0.0.0.0?
