Hi, > It must be true, I emailed Sun about 3 months ago and suggested it. (-: So long as Sun let the Mandrakers stay semi-independent, it probably *would* be a good thing. Certainly Sun could help move Linux to higher end systems, and have a suitable replacement to offer as more and more people move away from Solaris. For Mandrake, it would mean they probably would have enough funds to go on for a long time, would finally get a working out-of-the-box Java setup for Konqi, and would have the opportunity to support highend boxen. > Would that help or hinder the release of Mandrake 8.2 for Sparc?

Debian isn't so bad if you can get past the installation. Otherwise, I did a search on Google, and turned up the fact that you can download SuSE Linux 7.3 for SPARC (ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/sparc/7.3/iso/)... you can also read more Linux/SPARC stuff at http://www.ultralinux.org/ . -Tim - - -- - - ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.
