I don't know too much about /dev/ports, I'd have to look into it more. Some of the other FreeIPMI developers may know more already. Maybe they can chime in. > For the compilation problem i just put manual "typedef unsgned int u32;" and > it works (yes i know it's bad). Did just #include <asm-sparc64/types.h> work for you? For the time being, does your kernel come with the IPMI kernel driver? FreeIPMI 0.3.X also supports inband communication w/ the kernel driver. So it would be another way to get the ipmi tools to work in-band for hte time being.
