Not completely sure what the 'Solaris Sparc' binary compatibility package would be called??? Set up the gnemul directory correctly (see fairly recent posts about that) and just load the `solaris' module. I doubt that's going to help much with the x86 card, though.

It is a SUN manufactured card that houses an Intel CPU so that I can run Windows NT Workstation :) Works great under Solaris - but I don't want to run Solaris :) Cheers! -Sx- :)
Solaris Debian ?
I am kind of wondering out loud - debian:/home/sneex# man -k solar README.solaris (1) [perlsolaris] - Perl version 5 on Solaris systems perlsolaris (1) - Perl version 5 on Solaris systems Why would Solaris documentation be included on Debian? Also, a real question :) Can anyone tell me which of the following is the actual SunPCi (Intel CPU) card? debian:/home/sneex# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp. Ultra IIi 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp. Simba Advanced PCI Bridge (rev 13) 00:01.1 PCI bridge: Sun Microsystems Computer Corp.

Re: Solaris Debian ?
All of the others are known hardware, so the only conclusion from this list is: The SunPCi card is behind the DEC 21554 bridge, i.e. on 02:03.0 There is little to figure about the card through this bridge, you can get the datasheet from intel, but I doubt you will get very far without aditional knowledge about the cards structure (as busses and mappings are concerned). Well, do you know where I can get one of: debian:/usr/share/doc# find / -name gnemul -ls debian:/usr/share/doc# find / -name ibcs2 -ls Not completely sure what the 'Solaris Sparc' binary compatibility package would be called??? I searched the Debian site packages (stable, test, and even unstable), but the it lists 'ibcs' only... I feel if I can hack on the card via the Solaris PC software itself this will likely prove useful. I believe I need to tune in, turn on, or somehow set-up Solaris Binary compatibility; Thx/Sx :]
