Hi Adrian,
thanks a lot for the information. I download a new image (think the last one
from June this year) and will give a try tomorrow on my Blades. Will keep you
updated.
Btw as I am not sure on Suns, would it be possible to add a supported (aka
accelerated) PCI non Sun (so no OBP firmware on the card) graphics card to the
Suns to be able use X in a "decent" way? As I cannot imagine that we will ever
have a supported Sun graphics card (XVR-100, 600, 1200) within Debian.
Cheers
Iggi

Please pick any of the newer images from the snapshots folder [1] as the
10.0 images
are ancient and they actually aren't stable releases despite what the
folder name
implies.
