Message-ID: <nrFEaoE@quack.kfu.com> Sender: news@quack.kfu.com (0000-News(0000)) Organization: The Duck Pond public unix, +1 408 249 9630, log in as guest. Date: Tue, 18 Jun 1996 07:52:22 UTC Lines: 21 I have an Axil 255 and am tired of running a stagnant OS for which I have no source. In looking through the web page, I noted that the Classic (microsparc-I based) was supported by the current release. Is the microsparc-II (SS5, Axil 255, et al) also supported? I presume for X you just go get X11R6 and compile it? What about the GX? If I remember correctly, Sun supplied binary only support to X11 for the GX (a cg3.o file). Does that file work or has some other accomodation been made? Just out of curiosity, on the SS10 and SS20 (which were also mentioned), what CPUs are supported (the web page didn't say)? Is MP supported (I doubt it, but hope springs eternal)? -- Nick Sayer <nsayer@quack.kfu.com> | "Stimpy! Move your butt!
