[sparc32] esp driver
Hello, I'm trying to install etch on a SS20 using raid 1. I have built a 2.6.16.1 official kernel with built-in esp and raid 1 support. When I try to initialize /dev/md? partitions, kernel always returns : esp0 resetting SCSI bus. Is there a workaround to fix this trouble ? The same SS20 works fine with a 2.4 kernel running on dual-SSII (but with a very bad HyperSPARC support) or with Solaris 9...

It is believed that the new version of SILO has some important bugfixes, which might solve the problems on newer machines, where the old SILO just fails [1]. The reason that this new version of silo is not yet in the archive is that it has a regression. When I tested it on my Ultra 10, I noticed that it did not respect the timeout setting I have in my silo.conf. It just kept sitting there waiting for input. Jurij said yesterday on IRC that with the CD he created silo did not prompt for input at all, but just booted. That also is not correct behavior. I've sent a mail to Ben Collins about the first point, but there was no reply yet. Cheers, Frans Pop pgpQZ8pGEBNh0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Debian on T2000?
Hi all!I hope this is the right mailinglist to ask if it is possible to install Debian Sarge on a Sun T2000 (https://www.sun.com/T2000), which currently is sporting Solaris. If so, is this installation of Sarge similar (maybe even completely congruent?) to installing on say, a x86? (Burning iso CD, booting from CD (how?), running installation)I have been in love with Debian for 2 years now and have the possibility to install Sarge on the Niagara machine, I just wish to know what I am getting myself into... I thank you in advance for any pointers or experience!All the best, Alexis

No, it is currently not possible, since the support for T2000 appeared only recently, and is scheduled to be included in mainstream kernel 2.6.17. Once it is released, Debian will support this machine, but only in unstable, unless someone will care to do the backporting of the new kernel to sarge. To the best of my knowledge currently only Ubuntu sparc port has support for T2000, since they have merged the required patches into their kernel already.

Which machine as pbuilder?
Hello *, Since my Indigo and m68k are gone... I am developing some Programs which must run under all Debian supported architectures. I have installed a little network of pbuilder (m68k, i386, amd64, ia64, ppc, mips and sparc) and like to know, which machine is suitable for a private pbuilder? I am not ritch, so I am searching for a small used one. Also I have setup a public pbuilder where peoples can upload there sources via Webinterface and can test it on a selected architecture. But this Server is currently not online. I hope, I will get in the next two weeks a new internt connection @home. Oh yes, like you see in my signature, I am in Strasbourg and if you want to give up a small suitable machine (prefered 19) for this Network, please let me know.

They were not advertised that much, you can try searching the sparc linux mailing list [0] for 'Niagara', that's the codename for the new subarchitecture, which T2000 implements.

Installation problems on Ultra30
Hi All, I have been trying to install 3.1 on an Ultra30; installation is ok, but when the moment of truth comes (reboot) it obstinately refuses to start the XServer. The graphic card is a Sun Elite3D, and I tried most of the suggested driver settings without success. Does anybody know the correct config settings for this card, connected to a 17in Sun monitor?

To improve performance attache the second HD to the CD cable the CD to the 'slave' connector. You do have to fiddle with mounts of the CD etc but when that's done the speed increase over the 'normal' master - slave configuration is worth it.

Re: Ultra 10, onboard VGA card or Creator?

It has a build in VGA card (not 13W3 :-( ), but I will also have a Creator (13W3) card to fit. I have a Sun GDM monitor, does anybody know which card performs best? I'd rather use the Creator, because I have a spare 13W3 connector hanging off my monitor. Many thanks, Chris. Use the creator, the vga is not for performance, more a terminal type thing. The vga is good if u want to setup a server without X. Casper -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
