X works, it compiles kernels, and it runs well enough to be my primary machine for the last 2 months. Also, Sun loaned us an Ultra 5 which will be at the Debian booth at LinuxWorld (showing off slink, with gnome-apt and some 0.99.4 gnome packages added). After LinuxWorld, Sun will be sending it to a user's group with Debian still installed for a demo. The 64-bit stuff will come, but the 32-bit stuff is quite usable, and there is no sense forcing people to use Red Hat (aka UltraPenguin) while they wait. :) Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED]
