+.TH CONSTYPE 1 __xorgversion__
+.SH NAME
+constype \- print type of Sun console
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B "constype"
+[
+.I device_name
+] [
+.B \-num
+]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B constype
+prints on the standard output the Sun code for the type of display
+that the specified device is.
+The types output include these:
+.sp 2
+.in +0.5i
+.nf
+bw?	Black and White, where ? is 1-4. (eg) 3-50s are bw2
+cg?	Colour Graphics display, where ? is 1-6, 8, 12
+gp?	Optional Graphics Processor board, where ? is 1-2
+ns?	Not Sun display \(em where ? is A-J
+.fi
+.in -0.5i
+.sp 2
+If the OS and device support the VIS_GETIDENTIFIER ioctl, the value
+returned from the ioctl is the value printed by constype.   Sample types
+output for these include:
+.sp 2
+.in +0.5i
+.nf
+SUNWffb        Sun Creator 3D (ffb) Graphics Accelerator
+SUNWm64        Sun PGX8, PGX24 or PGX64 Frame Buffer
+SUNWtext       Generic vgatext console for Solaris x86 graphics devices without specific kernel drivers
+.fi
+.in -0.5i
+.sp 2
+This is useful in determining startup values and defaults for window
+systems.
+.LP
+The
+.I device_name
+argument, if given, is the device to examine.
+If not given,
+.I /dev/fb
+is used.
+.LP
+The
+.B \-num
+option causes
+.I constype
+to follow the type keyword with the numeric value of that type,
+as returned by the FBIOGATTR or FBIOGTYPE ioctl and defined in fbio.h.
+This is useful if the type is not recognized by the program.
+.SH "EXIT STATUS"
+The program exits with status 0 if it identified a known console type,
+1 if the type was unknown, and 2 if the device could not be opened or
+another error occurred.
+.SH BUGS
+Not tested on all frame buffer types
