You might want to hang out on debian-sparc.

I've got an Ultra 30 which is my desktop; I shut it off when I'm not
using it because it's damaging my hearing :-)  I also have an Ultra 60
which is supposed to be a server but is mostly sitting around doing
nothing:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uptime
  21:13:16 up 34 days, 23:23,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00

I also have two Sparcstation 5s here but right now they are off.

I'm guessing you have an Ultra 30 with a Creator 3D framebuffer?
There's no such model as a "Sun Creator" :-)  it sounds to me like you
have a hardware problem.

  See, if you were allowed to keep the money, you wouldn't create
  jobs with it. You'd throw it in the bushes or something.  But
  the government will spend it, thereby creating jobs.
