Yeap. I'm in the process of getting several driver to use there hardware
cursors.

I have fixed the problems you have reported. I have a newer patch. Note
this is updated with the LCD support. I like to see if the patch works on
sparc. I has updates from the latest 2.4.X kernels. Please give it a try.

Let me know the results.
