How does a device driver know that it's a primary device? There's no harm, is there, if a driver fails to publish this property?
One of the emails said that on SPARC the default graphics device is the first graphics device found that can be controlled by the probe-list words. Do I assume correctly that this isn't necessarily so, for example when the console device is a graphics device specified by the OpenBoot NVRAM parameter output-device? > 3.
