That's still bloody complicated compared to

Isn't there some way to escape the wildcards in

This could possibly be dhclient. AFAIK pump and dhclient are the top two

Has anyone else got one of these? (the $99 DSE deal). I just got one today,
coincidentally. Installed xawtv and so far FM radio works, and TV kinda
works, only it's black and white. Any tips? I'm using the aerial that came
with the card, and yes it is tuned to the station (TV3 atm).

ps. I'm using the saa7134 driver. Incidentally, I didn't have the appropriate
devices in /dev, specifically /dev/video and /dev/radio - I'm using the old

'MAKEDEV' script that comes with that ;) was that a dumb move? I imagine

Problem solved. Opps, I shouldn't have posted so hastily, sorry :)
For those who are interested / encounter something similar, xawtv seems to
default to the "Capture:" setting being "overlay" - I changed it to
"grabdisplay", and I get full colour, yay :-)

What sort of sparc machine? Some are and some aren't supported.
Sun Ultra 5, is this suported?

The 170MHz SPARC 5 (Also known as the TurboSPARC) is only supported in the
newer kernel releases. There is not much active development, and UltraLinux
on this processor is not very stable.

Have a look at http://www.ultralinux.org/ this may be a good starting ground
