Re: i386 to sparc

Sounds like a neat application. What's it called? Can I download it? Mario I have an SS7oIP Linux app that currently runs on i386. I am porting the app to sparc.  I have 2.2r6 running on an Ultra5. I am a sparc newbie. I am comfortable with big vs little endianness. I make extensive use

re:optical mouse

Not necessarily true. I have a Type 5 mouse and keyboard. The mouse doesn't emit anything, yet it works perfectly. The DIP switch underneath the door of the keyboard on my Type 5 keyboard is as follows: 1=OFF 2=OFF 3=ON 4=OFF 5=OFF 6=OFF 7=ON HTH Mario At 10:55 9/01/02 -0800, Alex

Re: Optical mouse?

If you *really* can't find one on the net (sparc hardware list?), let me know, and I'll attempt to scan mine. Mario Greetings, I have a SparcStation 5, and I recently got a keyboard/ optical mouse pair from the guy I bought the system from. He said he could never get the mouse to work on

Installing X on SS5

I'm running testing. Since, I had no success with my past X server (see thread Xsun has me beat), I've decided to go with Xfree86 version 4. Who knows, it may work for me? My question is, since I've purged: xserver-xsun xserver-xfree86 what should I be getting with apt-get? Thanks. Mario

Re: Xsun has me beat

I've been told, you can't run any other client/server besides Xsun__ types on sparc machines. Have you had contrary experience with this? Hakan Kuecuekyilmaz wrote: Quoting Mario Lombardo [EMAIL PROTECTED]: In what file are these lines located? in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 if you are using

Xsun has me beat

I am stumped. I started reading: /usr/share/doc/xserver-xsun/README.Debian then ../xserver-common/README.Debian then I finally found what I think I wanted in ../xfree86-common/FAQ.gz under section [How do I get the Xserver to find the fixed font?] I've addressed everything under the

Re: Xsun has me beat

It's a SPARC 5. With startx there are other things it does than just the X server. I don't know too much detail, but it also starts the environment and the window manager etc. (through xinit or something). I typed Xsun, but now I can't shut it down. What's the key sequence to kill Xsun?

Re: Xsun has me beat

No, those don't work. I know they worked with Intel machines, but I have a Type 5 keyboard. Could it be some other sequence? I guess you are talking about a sparc. Right? Mario Hakan Kuecuekyilmaz wrote: typed Xsun, but now I can't shut it down. What's the key sequence to kill Xsun?

I'd hug you for the SSH idea, but unfortunately my station was off the network w/o an IP address :^ You did make me think of Serial A and B, but just my luck, getty wasn't listening on those ports. There goes my work click B.C.J.O wrote: On Wed, 14 Nov 2001, Hakan Kuecuekyilmaz

Xsun having problems?

Using a SPARCstation5 with 256MB of RAM and upgrading from Potato 2.2r2 to testing (Woody), I've deleted XF86Config and reran anXious to get my X running again. It still crashes complaining about fonts, but that used to happen before Woody anyway. Any ideas on why this is going on and what

Need a public tftp and/or bootp server

I don't understand why upgrading to Woody from Potato decidely affected my SILO boot loader. In short, does anybody know of a public tftp and/or bootp server that I can point to to get a SPARCstation 5 (sun4m) linux kernel so I can at least look at my filesystem and/or /etc/silo.conf to see
