[vconsole-discuss] virtual console new release based on snv_85

[Aaron Zang]

OK, I will start to release a SPARC version.
And BTW, whether  to support coherent console lays in  graphic card 
drivers, not console infrastructure.

Aaron

I agree, since otherwise we are stuck in an hard place on SPARC,
since we only have Xorg drivers right now for XVR-2500, and virtual
consoles require both Xorg support & coherent console support, and
there's no cards with both.

Actually before starting to release a SPARC build, I want to make sure
that your SPARC box supports coherent console which means the graphic card
of your SPARC box should be either XVR-100 or XVR-300. It is a requisite for
supporting virtual console.

Yes I do have XVR-300 cards.  It would be nice if coherent console support was 
also added for XVR-2500.

Hi all,

The new release for virtual console is available on OpenSolaris now.

Please check out the download page of virtual console project:
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/vconsole/Downloads/

And for those who have access to SWAN, you can get the install DVD image at:
/net/jericho.prc/export/home/workspace/vt_85x_product3/solarisdvd.iso
My apology to the others. Since our download center has limited disk
space, uploading the whole DVD install image is not welcomed.

Regards,
Aaron
