The Debian sparc port runs on sparc64[0]. You can download a CD from cdimage.debian.org. [0] In fact, that's all it runs on. 32-bit sparc systems are not supported anymore. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Oh, and on second thought, also it looks like e3d is the signature of the XVR-500 class driver (drivers/video/sunxvr500.c). That one also matches devices by PCI subdevice ID (0x0140 or 0x1024) which is probably how you get it. dmesg | grep e3d # ? -- 2.

So it doesn't look like the kernel framebuffer drivers picked it up. So that should be 3d3d:1047... but from the looks of it, that's not the detection method on sparc, the driver is just looking for "SUNW,gfb" in the PROM data. Can you install sparc-utils and run prtconf -v, and see if anything like that comes up? -- 2.

Thanks. You might want to search the mailing list archives for these subjects: "X on Ultra5 with Debian Lenny 5.0.3" "configure ati chipset for Sun ultra 5" I believe it is a question of getting the right combination of newer kernel and Xorg.
