X3670A question

2005-09-09 Thread Hartwig Atrops
Hello all.

I yust received a Sun Ultra 60 wit a X3670A (501-5690) Creator 3D. The 
Creator 3D has a 13W3 connector and a mini-Din (?) connector. What is that 
mini-Din good for? Lots of useless Google hits ...

Thanks,

  Hartwig

It is a stereo port. Here is info from Sun:



Stereo Support

Both Creator and Creator3D Graphics systems are stereo ready enabling users

to view stereo images (Creator) or dynamic 
stereo 3D geometry (Creator3D) by
adding the appropriate stereo viewing equipment.

A sync port is provided on the back of the Creator Graphics module which

interfaces to stereo viewing equipment. First generation systems feature a
mini-stereo connector to carry the sync signal while second generation systems
utilize an 8-pin mini-DIN connector.

A Stereo-capable monitor is shipped with each Creator Graphics system. A

compatible emitter and stereo glasses can be obtained from Stereographics
Corporation (Part# ESUN: Emitter and Cable, and Part# CE2: Stereo Glasses)



Regards,

Steve Garrett

Hi

It works with this netboot on sparc64
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/installer-sparc/current/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/boot.img
It a net installations
Use a tfptboot wtih bootp or rarp and then in openboot tip  boot net
bootp boot.img or boot net boot.img

Good luck

 I'm trying to install debian in a sun fire v210 with no luck.

 It fails when Remapping the kernel and hagns on there.

 Is there any option or comand that I'm missing? Is like the installer
 program can't find the image.

 I will apreciate any help. Thanx.

 Most of what I have heard is in relation to first-cd.b bootloader and
 Ultra III's. Since I don't have an Ultra III, I can't do any testing.
 
 
  
 
 

A datum point: no installer I've tried to date today on a Sun Blade 150
will work. I tried the unofficial installer CD (netboot, 120M)
referenced from the Wiki page mentioned by Frans Pop, the TFTP boot
image (5.3M) used by can't remember/spell his name, sorry  Sharma and 
referenced in the Debian HOWTO and the Sarge CD1.

Sarge CD1 - boots fine, then dies because it can't find the initrd or a 
root filesystem.

TFTP - boots fine, but expects a connection to the Internet - I was
doing this stand alone :( Issues with the ide-cd and/or the USB keyboard
module. Tends to stall a couple of seconds after ide-cd is initialised.

Unofficial netinst - much better than the two above - won't install
the base system at all. Does understand USB.

Finally, despairing after two days work, we put the Sarge CD1 into an
Ultra 5. The Sharma HOWTO references problems with the date command:
the machine locks solid on setting the timezone - there's a date there
somewhere. Still odd problems and unexplained lockups occasionally.

Debian on Ultras is somewhat screwy - but I may be a corner case
(installing on newest/newer hardware, standalone with no Internet
connection and only the 13 CD's _and_ installing on Sparc which is less
tested than Intel).  Still, the client got a machine with SSH, X Windows and
a development environment on - so they are largely happy :)
