I am subscribed, but I would prefer for efficiency that any request to change the release notes or the installation manual (for sparc, or otherwise) is sent to <[email protected]> or filed as a bug against boot-floppies. >> I'm the maintainer of /ports/sparc, and I plan to consolidate the >> various slink install comments and put them there shortly. Excellent. sd> The stuff that I have seen so far: sd> The permissions have do be changed on /dev/fb*. I'd be happy to add this stuff to the release notes, but I need more information. Or I'd also be even happier just to point to Jules' area on the web site. Guidance, please! sd> The /dev/mouse link has to be created: "ln -sf sunmouse sd> /dev/mouse" Should this be added to the release notes? Errata? Enrique (the boot-floppies maintainer) thinks it's a xserver-xsun bug, btw (bug submitted by me just today).
