I *need* to find the ROM address of a sparcstation-1gx's system font
table.  I have an assignment which requires me to use this font to
generate characters on a pixel-by-pixel basis.  I realize that this is
very slow, but it does teach raw character generation concepts (btw. the
assignment was written for students using pc's, but I'm using a
Sparcstation).  If someone (from sun?) could send me the info which I will
need to access this font, I would be eternally grateful.
