blas test failures
Greetings! There appears to be nothing I can do to get blas to pass its integrity tests on sparc (vore). Tried 2.95 and 3.0, turning off all optimizations, -Wall, even an ultrasparc ISA. All fail in exactly the same place. Mips had a similar problem in this place until I used gcc-3.0 there instead of the default. I know its not an error in the code, as it passes on all other arches (except hppa for other explainable reasons), and is a *very* well established standard upstream. Anyway, the failures are in the single precision real and complex C interface tests to dot, asum, and nrm2. Here is a sample error file: Could go through with gdb, but don't have time right now. = Real CBLAS Test Program Results Test of subprogram number 1 CBLAS_SDOT FAIL CASE N INCX INCY MODE I COMP(I) TRUE(I) DIFFERENCE SIZE(I) 1 111 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 1 211 1 0.21457691E-07 0.2099E+00 -0.2100E+00 0.1600E+01 1 411 1 0.11718752E-03 0.6200E+00 -0.6199E+00 0.3200E+01 1 12 -2 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 1 22 -2 1 -0.35652176E-11 -0.7000E-01 0.7000E-01 0.1600E+01 1 42 -2 1 0.15625017E-02 0.8502E+00 -0.8484E+00 0.3200E+01 1 1 -21 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 1 2 -21 1 -0.80078148E-03 -0.7902E+00 0.7892E+00 0.1600E+01 1 4 -21 1 -0.44921864E-03 -0.7401E+00 0.7396E+00 0.3200E+01 1 1 -1 -2 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 1 2 -1 -2 1 0.74386634E-06 0.3301E+00 -0.3300E+00 0.1600E+01 1 4 -1 -2 1 0.36250010E-01 0.1270E+01 -0.1234E+01 0.3200E+01 Test of subprogram number 2 CBLAS_SAXPY - PASS - Test of subprogram number 3 CBLAS_SROTG - PASS - Test of subprogram number 4 CBLAS_SROT - PASS - Test of subprogram number 5 CBLAS_SCOPY - PASS - Test of subprogram number 6 CBLAS_SSWAP - PASS - Test of subprogram number 7 CBLAS_SNRM2 FAIL CASE N INCX INCY MODE I COMP(I) TRUE(I) DIFFERENCE SIZE(I) 7 11 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 7 21 1 0.30517578E-04 0.5000E+00 -0.5000E+00 0.5000E+00 7 31 1 0.29296879E-03 0.6999E+00 -0.6997E+00 0.7000E+00 7 41 1 0.97656222E-04 0.6002E+00 -0.5999E+00 0.6000E+00 7 12 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 7 22 1 0.30517578E-04 0.5000E+00 -0.5000E+00 0.5000E+00 7 32 1 0.29296879E-03 0.6999E+00 -0.6997E+00 0.7000E+00 7 42 1 0.97656222E-04 0.6002E+00 -0.5999E+00 0.6000E+00 Test of subprogram number 8 CBLAS_SASUM FAIL CASE N INCX INCY MODE I COMP(I) TRUE(I) DIFFERENCE SIZE(I) 8 11 1 0.38146987E-06 0.3001E+00 -0.3000E+00 0.3000E+00 8 21 1 0.29296905E-03 0.6999E+00 -0.6997E+00 0.7000E+00 8 31 1 0.14062506E-01 0.1100E+01 -0.1086E+01 0.1100E+01 8 41 1 0.78125000E-02 0.1000E+01 -0.9922E+00 0.1000E+01 8 1

Currently my only woody machine is my u60, and it is exhibiting the problems associated with the libpng/libqt snafu. I use gnome on my desktop, but prefer konqueror to mozilla as a webbrowser; obviously this has put a crimp in my workstyle. =) I've noticed people in #debian claiming it has been fixed, but the fixes don't seem to have made it into the woody pool for sparc. Any ETA on updates? My intel box is tracking sid, and I seem to have skipped the problem entirely there. Any help appreciated.

Re: Sparc(s) won't read Debian CDs (Thanks - I'm up)
Rob - These are CD-R disks from http://www.linux-cd.com/ In the meantime I finally worked up the nerve to do a 'boot cdrom' from the 'ok' prompt - and (of course) it booted up just fine. Must be that SunOS 5.7 can't read the Debain distribution.

System.map Errors
Hi, I have seen this error talked about a lot on mailing lists, but have not been able to find a solution to it. I have only seen this error since enabling module support and it seems to be related to the loading of eth1 which is a HappyMeal 10/100 card. When I do a ps or anything else which accesses the kernel I will get the following message: {iommu_lockarea} {___f_mmu_lockarea} Warning: /boot/System.map-2.2.19 does not match kernel data. {iommu_lockarea} {___f_mmu_lockarea} Warning: /usr/src/linux/System.map does not match kernel data. I have checked the relevant files and my System.map file is definately the correct version. I coped /usr/src/linux/System.map into /boot and it was created when the kernel was compiled. Here is the versioning information of my system which is a Sparc 5 running Debian Potatoe 2.2: Linux hantu 2.2.19 #1 Wed Feb 20 18:39:04 GMT 2002 sparc unknown Gnu C 2.95.2 Gnu make 3.79.1 binutils 2.9.5.0.37 mount 2.10f modutils 2.3.11 e2fsprogs 1.18 Linux C Library2.1.3 Dynamic linker (ldd) 1.9.11 Procps 2.0.6 Net-tools 1.54 Console-tools 0.2.3 Sh-utils 2.0 Modules Loaded sunhme sunlance Thanks in advance, Chris pgp5TYGZ9mbYa.pgp Description: PGP signature

This reminded me of another issue I've had with older CDROM drives (Sun and otherwise): Many (most?) older drives will not read CD-RW disks. Do you know if the CD's are mastered, CD-R's, or CD-RW's?

The Sparc 20 CD-ROM drive is so slow (1x, 150kB/s) that you'd be better off mounting the disk on another machine and exporting via NFS, or making the files accessible via FTP or HTTP.

Sparc(s) won't read Debian CDs
Hello to everyone. I just got my first set of Debian CDs. They read fine on 2 different PCs - but 2 different Sparc 20's can't read them. Each Sparc reads CDs just fine until I put these in. Has anyone seen anthing like this? Any suggestions? -- KenMc - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.grandcanyonhiker.com See our new video - 'Hiking the Grand Canyon - The Corridor Trails'

But it would really help if the support would not say: "Oh, you are running Linux on your Sparc machine. This is your own problem. Full stop." I recommend everybody to avoid mentioning Linux in case of hardware trouble. I had to fight against several support members to clarify that the same problem even was reproducable under Solaris because their database showed the entry Linux for my box. Kind regards Andreas.
