With all this 64bits discussion of the last day, I was thinking... the debs
that come with Debian SPARC, surelly are compiled with 32 bit support, right?
Isn't there plans on having more 64 bits support in the linux SPARC
I'm looking for a cheap u1 little server. I don't need a lot a
resources, so I don't want to give out a lot of money.
The sun fire v100 seems cheaper then other i386 solutions, so I'd like
to know how linux runs on it. Does anyone of you use it with debian?

I've read that linux for sparc64 has got a 32 bit userland.
Why? What's wrong with 64 bit?

I run Debian on my Netra X1, which is almost exactly a V100. It's a

Nothing is wrong with it par-say BUT in most cases it is unnecessary.
Whne in 64-bit mode you use a lot more memory to run the same program -
thus the current strategy - 64bit where you actually need

Geez, and I got flamed as a clueless luser for saying these things. ;)

Ok, I've gotten glibc build fixed up again so that v9 and 64-bit get
built correctly. Not sure when this will show up in the archive, but
consider it a done deal from my side.
Also, anyone noticing that the sparc32 program is broken, that got fixed
already and the 1.9-2.2 package of sparc-utils
