X

[Anders Hammarquist]

I've applied a few more patches, uploaded the packages to master (or will, 
as soon as the routing tables get back in order...) and sent the patches 
to the bug tracking system.

The most major thing I did was to change Xsun to try /dev/fb[0123] before 
trying /dev/fb. That way it should find all you nifty extra framebuffers 
and not just the default on. (If anyone has, or can lay hands on, a 
machine with more than one framebuffer, or a cg4 - that qualifies as two, 
please do try it out). The packages are at ftp.netg.se:/pub/Linux/sparc/X 
as usual.

Oh, and Ctrl-Alt-Fn and Ctrl-Alt-BackSpace work in these last versions (at 
least on my SparcClassic/cg3/2.0.33).

Regards,
/Anders

SCSI Problems on IPX

[Adam Haberlach]

I've managed to get my system to start a netboot from my i586 Linux 
box.  After quite a bit of downloading, the kernel attempts to boot, but 
once it unpacks the root filesystem, I get scrolling SCSI errors forever.  
I've heard (from some redhat [boo, hiss] newsgroups) that this is caused 
by a bug in the SCSI driver that occurs on some systems with kernels 
compiled with egcs.  Anyone out there have this problem, a fix, or a 
workaround?
