RE: Which X server
OK, being a brave (or is that stupid?) soul, I tried to compile it, but it has me totally stumped. After doing 'make World' I get this... ** cd ./config/imake && make -f Makefile.proto all make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/xfree/xc/config/imake' gcc -O -ansi -pedantic -I../../include -I../../exports/include/X11 -I../.. -I../../exports/include -Dlinux LinuxMachineDefines -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500L -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -DFUNCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO -DCPP_PROGRAM="\"/lib/cpp\"" -c -o imake.o imake.c gcc: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations ** I cannot figure out what is wrong here. Not sure if it is the compiler, the makefiles or something else. If there is a simple fix to this, please let me know and I will try again, otherwise I will just wait.

Linux has prtconf too BTW :) Glad the install went well for you. First time you get a chance, you will want to upgrade to potato (soon to be released) since it is much more stable.

Hi Ben, I just tried to install Potato on both an IPX and a Sparc10 using the latest bootdisks, with mixed results. For the most part, everything went fine on the IPX. The only problems I saw were that a few of the kernel modules in the misc section have unresolved dependencies, which generates a half-screenful of annoying messages when depmod runs at start-up. Here's a copy of the output: Calculating module dependencies... depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/module s/2.2.15/misc/b1dma.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/b1pci.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/c4.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/eicon.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/hisax.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/icn.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/sc.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/t1isa.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.15/misc/t1pci.o done. Other than that, the IPX is now a fully functioning Debian system. Yeah! I wasn't as lucky with the Sparc10, though. It looks like I'm running into the same problems that Jonas Oberg pointed out on the list, late last month, in message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. While booting the kernel, no matter if I'm using a rescue disk or the TFTP image, it doesn't seem to be able to find a /proc file system.

SPARC Cpu?
Hi all I'm happy to meet you all. I subscribed to this list because I have now my first Sun SPARC at home (what a feeling!). :) At work I use AIX and a lot of RS/6000 (I'm a SUN newbie). Next I install slink but I'm confusing about the CPU inside my SPARC, it's no TurboSparc 170Mhz - just a microSPARC II. Is there a big difference between these processors? Can't find more informations about this CPU type from the SUN website. Thanks Marc -- Marc O.

Any experience with Compaq cxx?
Hi, I've tried to install compaq's cxx compiler (6.3.6.10) as an alternative for g++, because i need speed in runtime. I used cxx-6.3.6.10-12.alpha.rpm from Compaq's website, `alien'd it, and `dpkg --install'd it. Fine. Hand-edited comp.config. Problem is that Compaq's loader wants `--style compaq' option, but Debian's binutils 2.9.5.0.31 does not support that. Compaq delivers their own patch to binutils, they versioned it 2.9.1.0.23 (for redhat 6.1), but i don't want to spoil Debian's structure (compete with their binutils). Any ideas/experience in this field? ---david
