No disks. 2 x Sun V240 servers, with CPU and RAM. I think they had 4GB and 8GB RAM. 1 x Brocade 2400 FC switch 1 x Brocade 3800 FC switch 1 x DS4000 IBM/LSI storage controller 3 x EXP500 FC shelves with 36GB FC disks and sleds. Please let me know if and when you can pick up, or it is all going out in the trash on the next couple Wednesdays. I also have available a ProFile external HD and an Apple LISA with water damage to the motherboard, but maybe good CPU, RAM cards, and other parts, but I want something for the Lisa--it's not free like the list above.

They all seem to be in very good condition with cardboard attached by rubber band to protect the keys. Don't know if anyone else is interested in them, but I picked one up just because. alan </pre> Alan Perry 2012-05-07T23:54:18 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.solaris.at-home/3914 <pre>Hi, Looking at qemu, Linux and NetBSD sources I see that there is some sort of CPU Power Management at least in SparcStation-5. But after installing Solaris on a SS-5 I see the pmc driver only in sparcv9 directory. Also # prtconf [...] power-management (driver not attached) [...] Does anyone have any machine with working "pmc" driver, or some some other driver which binds to the "power-management" device? I just can't believe that Linux (and meanwhile NetBSD too) know Sun hardware better than Sun's own OS. Am I missing something obvious? Artyom </pre> Artyom Tarasenko 2012-03-06T15:20:51 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.solaris.at-home/3913 <pre> On a whim, I tried connecting my Olympus D595 camera to my sb1000 yesterday to see what it would do. The system appeared to create the device node correctly but I couldn't find an application to access the camera and do stuff with image files. My 1000 is running sol 9 still so perhaps that's part of the reason. Anyway if anyone is aware of some software that works in solaris 9 for managing usb-connected digital camera devices, I'd like to check it out. Thanks, Craig. </pre> Craig Dewick 2012-02-26T21:27:47 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.solaris.at-home/3912 <pre> People on the digest, please update the Subject: when you reply! Depending on why, you may also have to cut out SunOS, since it's basically 4BSD with a few additions (eg NFS) and some Sun branding. That aside, I have a Voyager; if it matters to anyone, I could easily boot NetBSD 4.x on it and check whether any of my PCMCIA wireless cards work in it; with a bit more work I could try 5.x. (1.4T definitely does not support the nell, but I doubt anyone but me cares about that.) /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTMLmouse&lt; at &gt;rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B </pre> Mouse 2012-02-22T16:18:00 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.solaris.at-home/3911 <pre>Hello, John Ruschmeyer &lt;jruschme&lt; at &gt;comcast.net&gt; writes: I have received some suggestions of adapter/driver combos that might work.

Tough call... you're limited to a Max of Solaris 9 with a 16-bit PCMCIA adapter. That leaves only Wavelan, Prism, or CISCO Aironet-based cards, assumeing drivers even exist. Most of that sort of development didn't happen until OpenSolaris. I'd say you have two options: 1) NetBSD/OpenBSD, assuming they support the PCMCIA slots in the Voyager. 2) A Wireless Bridge, like a "Gaming Adapter" on the built-in LAN connection.

I've put together a gentoo based linux in the form of a live-cd and a "stage3" system tarball. Those of you that are familiar with gentoo will know what to do. If not, just follow the gentoo sparc install guide. I've tested it on sparcstation 4,5, 10 and 20. The sparcstation 10 and 20 I've tested with SMP. Hypersparc works as well but not with a more recent kernel than 2.6.31.9. Single CPU microsparc and supersparc work with recent kernels like 3.1.5 let me know if you want to give it a try, I can provide an install iso and a system tarball via ftp.

But, I can share that back in the day (pre Solaris 9), and before the patch you are referencing came out, there were 3rd party /dev/random devices available for Solaris. For what its worth, if you are not able to find a copy of that patch, I might suggest you look here. http://www.cosy.sbg.ac.at/~andi/SUNrand/ Hope this helps.

All of the python packages in pkgsrc are broken at least on sparc. They segfault during compile. Anything that depends on python will then fail to install. I've tried a dozen times on my IPX to get python to compile so I could install scons which would allow me to compile a new version of gpsd. Python 2.4 through 2.7 all dead and scons wants at least 2.6. </pre> Alex Carver 2011-11-03T22:35:36 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.os.solaris.at-home
