Why is it called sparc64?

2002-09-07 Thread Bill Moseley
BTW -- The Ultra 10 on sourceforge say: $ uname -a Linux usf-cf-sparc-linux-1 2.4.18 #2 Thu Apr 11 14:37:17 EDT 2002 sparc64 unknown I gather from the Solaris list it's a SPARC v9, and a sparc64 is something else. -- Bill Moseley mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
