OpenGL problems on an Ultra/2 with Creator3D
Hello, folks- I recently got my hands on a Creator3D, and, although I've got X up and running (apparently) cheerfully, almost none of the OpenGL apps I've tried are working. I'm running a stock installation of Woody, with xserver-xfree86 configured through debconf, and a 2.4.22 kernel with DRM enabled. In a (possibly misguided) attempt to preserve bandwidth and avoid false positives on future list searches, here are my debconf choices for xserver-xfree86: X Server Driver:11 (sunffb) Video card identifier: SUNW,ffb Bus Identifier: none Video memory: autodetect Use kernel framebuffer: no (though I've tried both) ... Color depth:6 (24-bit) Modules:all but dri and xtt I get 400+ fps in glxgears, which leads me to believe that, at least fundamentally, DRM and DRI are happy. The GL xlock modes seem happy as well (though 'molecule' is currently taking a somewhat suspicious 100% of the time on one of the CPUs). Everything else I've tried (e.g. tuxracer, openuniverse, and armagetron) mangles colors, or textures, or something. It's a little hard for me to tell what exactly, since I don't have a frame of reference. The closest thing I've seen to this in the list archives is the 'Ultra1 Creator quirks' thread from July and August of '01, but I don't have (or just haven't noticed) any problems with glxgears. Is there something that needs to be done with my kernel or X (or some other) config, or am I just looking at the limits of the 15MiB of RAM the card is purported to have[1]?

XF86_3DLabs and/or XF86_FBDev (3.3.6) on AXi w/PGX32
Hello, all- I am not subscribed to debian-user, so please cc me on any responses you send to that list (I know I should be, but I've been less than entirely diligent about keeping up with debian-sparc, debian-alpha and the like). The broadest question I have is where documentation for XFree on Sparc can be found. AFAICT, it's a fairly recent development (although I would assume that FBDev has been working for some time). If there's an FM to be read, please point me at it, and I'll keep myself occupied for a while. I have installed Potato on a Concorde UMax/10 (Basically an Ultra/10 but with SCSI instead of IDE), which is running a PGX32 (Permedia2). There is no video card on the motherboard, so the PGX32 is the only framebuffer in the system. # cat /proc/openprom/banner-name 'SPARCengine(tm)Ultra(tm) AXi (UltraSPARC-IIi 440MHz)' I've installed xserver-3dlabs and xserver-fbdev, but can't seem to get either of them to behave. XF86_3DLabs claims not to find any GLINT/PERMEDIA cards on startup, and the closest I was able to find poking through list archives was a thread about problems with XF4 probing multiple PCI busses to find video cards on Alphas. FWIW, the video card, in its current location, is on PCI bus 1. I tried moving it to another slot, and it ended up on bus 128. Rather than flailing around with that for too long, I figured I'd solicit an expert opinion or two first. I then tried to get XF86_FBDev (which has come to my rescue on a great many occasions... slow, but dependable) to work, but was unable to come up with an appropriate set of modelines. Sadly, xf86config has worked so well for me in the past that I have not really learned how to make my own XF86Config file from scratch. I tried using the output from fbset -x to create a usable modeline for the framebuffer (which is running 1280x1024x60 ATM. In a perfect world I'd get that up to 1280x1024x76, but am less picky for now), but XF86_FBDev continues to claim not to have found any valid modelines. Also, for whatever reason, multiple -verbose on the command line don't seem to be getting me any more detail. Is the most reasonable thing to do to try an upgrade to XF4? It seems like there's a great deal more traffic re: XF4 on sparc that there is about 3.3.6. Having written that all out, I get the sneaking suspicion that I should be sending this to a newbie list of some type, but I'm still too proud... I've included some details below. If any others would be useful (kernel config, XF86Config snippets, etc) please let me know.

2.4.0-test4 possible memory issues on boot (re:2.4.0-test4 no boot?)
Hello, all- I noticed this thread on linux-kernel, an thought I'd throw my two cents in. I've cc'ed debian-sparc because I'm beginning to suspect that, at least in my case, this may be an issue with SIMM placement, and thus something that some of the good folks there may have run into. I'm not nearly brave enough at this point to actually subscribe to linux-kernel, so please cc me on any messages sent to linux-kernel. That said... I am seeing nearly identical behavior on a 2-way Sparc 10. On boot, it claims to be starting linux and then, after announcing a call to free_all_bootmem, it freezes solid, and won't respond to stop-A. Here's /proc/cpuinfo: cpu : Texas Instruments, Inc. - MicroSparc fpu : SuperSparc on-chip FPU promlib : Version 3 Revision 2 prom: 2.12 type: sun4m ncpus probed: 2 ncpus active: 2 Cpu0Bogo: 39.83 Cpu1Bogo: 39.93 MMU type: TI Viking invall : 0 invmm : 0 invrnge : 0 invpg : 0 contexts: 65536 CPU0: online CPU1: online I've compiled (and trimmed) some potentially interesting behavior from the console on boot into 2.4.0-test4, 2.4.0-test1, and 2.2.15. In the case of 2.4.0-test4, it simply doesn't boot, but the bootmem information it gives is slightly different from 2.4.0-test1, and will hopefully be helpful. With 2.4.0-test1, it boots, but doesn't seem to find anywhere near all the memory. In fact, the arithmetic suggests that it's only dealing with 64MB of memory, instead of 96MB. According to the info I found on docs.sun.com, I believe I've to the 6x16MB SIMMS in the correct places, but the order does seem (to me at least) to be deeply pathological, so I'm a bit suspicious. With the 2.4.0-test1 kernel, I also dumped the output from /proc/openprom/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/available, in case that it helpful. Sadly, I was scared away from the /proc/openprom module when I compiled 2.2.15 by the fact that it was experimental, so I don't have anything else to compare the 2.4.0-test1 results with. If there's any other information whic would be helpful, or anything else I should try, please let me know. I appear not to have saved a copy of my 2.4.0-test1 config, but I do have the 2.4.0-test4 and 2.2.15 configs available if they would be of interest, but this is already probably far too long a message.

Re: newbie+potato+Classic=? [was CDU561 misadventures]
Hello, all- For what it's worth, I did an essentially complete potato install over a 33.6 modem[1]. The fact that I was doing the install through another machine doing IP masquerading meant that I was able to pretend it was a standard network install, but if you have copies of base2_2.tgz and drivers.tgz already, then it should (someone feel free to correct me on this, I've never actually tried it) be fairly straightforward to just tell it to do the install over PPP once the base system is up and running. That said, it will take a while. I can sustain about 10MB/hour through a 33.6 modem, so I expect that translates to around 8 or 9 MB/hour on a 28.8. It's a long time, granted, but if you let it go overnight, you end up sleeping through the bulk of it, which softens the demands on your attention span substantially. For what it's worth, I have potato running on a Classic (among several other systems), and have nothing but good things to say about it. Good luck- David [1] In the interests of full disclosure, the install was on a pentium notebook, but that's really immaterial. The install process is very smooth and consistent across Alpha, Sparc and x86, and, like I said, the only thing that my machine could tell was different from a 'real' net install was that the pipe was ... skinny. On Tue, 25 Jul 2000, Ben Roberts wrote: You can put the files anywhere you like for things like base2_2.tgz, then tell the installer where to look for them. THe same goes for drivers.tgz; I agree you don't want to put all of those onto floppies :-) Also make sure that if you're using cdrw's that their formatting is compatible with your drive. But for the packages themselves I don't know... but one thing you can do is make a fake cd set with all the stuff you really need; get all the packages as well as the Packages.gz or whatever, and keep the directory structure intact. That COULD work... but you may need to remake the Packages.gz file for each cdrw, so that would be a challenge. Any change you can just get a whole lot of network cable strung to your friend's place with the ADSL connection? :-) The last option, which isn't that bad, is to configure apt to do http downloads, then individually select which major packages (i.e. not supporting packages, apt does that) you want via apt-get install package. Apt will prompt you asking if you want to do it and what packages it will download, including dependencies (the glory of apt!). Quit apt then copy the packages over to its temporary directory off the cdrw, then run it again. Voila! It's better than downloading them at least. - Ben Roberts, Class of 2001 (1st of millenium), founding member of MBLUG If your motherboard smells like carcinogens it's time to get a new motherboard. -- Ben Roberts, refering to his SPARC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

SMP SS10 freezes hard intermittently
Hello, all- I've got an SS10 with two CPUs, running a 2.2.15 kernel with SMP enabled. It locks up hard periodically, and won't respond to stop-A, a break on the serial port, the three-fingered salute, or, in fact, anything short of a power-cycle. It doesn't do it consistantly, but the times it happened were (a) when installing packages with apt-get (unfortunately, I didn't pay enough attention to which, but it froze immedaitely after it finished the download of the .deb files), and (b) in X (both when I was strace'ing the startup to find out why it thought I didn't have a screen, and later, while WindowMaker was starting up). There are no obviously strange log entries, and my strace output was in /tmp, so it was removed after teh power-cycle. If there are any other diagnostic steps I should try, please let me know.

RE: SMP SS10 freezes hard intermittently
Hello- I've got a CG6. I had included the other FBs for the sake of ... completeness (read: figuring out what I had in the box). From /var/log/messages: fb0: cgsix at e. TEC Rev 4 CPU sparc Rev b [TurboGX] The only (permanent) change I made to the devices was the addition of a symlink to /dev/fb0: lrwxrwxrwx1 root root3 Jun 9 17:56 /dev/cgsix0 - fb0 crw--w--w-1 root tty 29, 0 May 4 08:32 /dev/fb0 HTH (particularly since I'm the one it will ultimately end up helping :) David On Mon, 12 Jun 2000, Gregory Leblanc wrote: -Original Message- From: David Butts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 12, 2000 5:54 PM To: debian-sparc@lists.debian.org Cc: sparclinux@vger.rutgers.edu Subject: SMP SS10 freezes hard intermittently Hello, all- I've got an SS10 with two CPUs, running a 2.2.15 kernel with SMP enabled. It locks up hard periodically, and won't respond to stop-A, a break on the serial port, the three-fingered salute, or, in fact, anything short of a power-cycle. It doesn't do it consistantly, but the times it happened were (a) when installing packages with apt-get (unfortunately, I didn't pay enough attention to which, but it froze immediately after it finished the download of the .deb files), and (b) in X (both when I was strace'ing the startup to find out why it thought I didn't have a screen, and later, while WindowMaker was starting up). There are no obviously strange log entries, and my strace output was in /tmp, so it was removed after the power-cycle. If there are any other diagnostic steps I should try, please let me know.

Video timing for Xsun?
Hello, all- I'm running Potato on a couple of Sun boxes (Ultra/1 and an SS10), both with CG6 framebuffers. X is working great, except that the video timing for one of the monitors seems a little off (too little dark time at either end of the horizontal scan). I can just about get it cleaned up with the controls on the monitor, but I was wondering if there was any way of specifying the video timings for Xsun. I've checked the Xsun and Xserver manpages, but didn't immediately see any reference to it. IIRC, the M64 drivers for Solaris 2.6 on an Ultra/5 (admittedly, a different animal entirely) provide a means to put monitor timing definitions in the openprom nvramrc. I would expect that this is a feature that is unique to Solaris and/or newer hardware, but is there some similar mechanism for the video timing? Thanks, David
Re: FAQlist?
Hello, all-
First off, you guys rock. Many, many thanks for all the work you've
done.
I've poked around the ultralinux FAQ and a few man pages, but haven't
quite managed to find this: Is it possible to get Xsun to honor the
alt-F[1-6] virtual-console switching keystrokes that XF86_* allow? I
realize that with a window manager that supports multiple workspaces,
the presence of the virtual consoles is not as critical, but it'd be
nice to have [access to] them.
Thanks again-
David

There is a FAQ for sparc linux in general at:
http://www.ultralinux.org/faq.html
at the moment it doesn't have very much that is debian specific. But
if you don't find what your looking for, as Ben said just ask the
list.
Any question that could annoy most experienced users should
IMHO be asked right away.
I'm quite sure that more Debian specific information will be added
to the FAQ at www.ultralinux.org in the very near future.

Re: FAQlist?
Hello, all-
My bad... That's what I get for asking the question w/out reading all
the recent mail first.
ctrl-alt-F[1-6] indeed does the trick.
In a desperate attempt to redeem myself, I'll try to add some new
content to the discussion :)
Is there a particular reason that ctrl-alt- is used instead of just
alt-? Is it configurable at all? For that matter, is there an
analog of XF86Config for Xsun?
Thanks again for all the work that has gone into this-
