#
###########################################################################

+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|   ... is the first non-sx/sxcr OpenSolaris distribution for sparc 
(sun4u for now, sun4v later).
|     I'm having a nice Desktop distro in mind, in the longer run.
|
|   It is already featuring a complete gcc3 built X.Org X11R6.9
|   (incl. the actual Xorg server binary and therefore finally
|   with drivers supporting a few pci sparc frame buffers).
|   See 
http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/alanc?entry=xorg_for_solaris_sparc for
|   the until-today background story.
|   It does work now    :)
|
|   These are the first working X.Org binaries for sparc - Solaris
|   ever released!
|   You might try "xorgconfig" / "Xorg -configure" / "startx" etc. if 
you have
|   a TSI Raptor 8p , PGX, PGX32, PGX64 or XVR-100  framebuffer.
|
|   The initial homepage will be at 
http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~mbeinsx/marTux starting
|   over the night / tomorrow.
|   I'll make the currend marTux_01.iso image available within the next 
48 hours
|   or less.
|   This v0.1 release is unstable ALPHA software.
|  |   Please report your experience to bochnig at pool.math.tu-berlin.de
|   Good luck!
