Hi.

I just wanted to let everyone know that my SPARCserver 1000E works fine so
far in SMP mode, after removing the printks in
init/main.c: calibrate_delay(), according to earlier comments on this
list.

In fact, I just installed a vanilla Red Hat 6.1 CD, rebuilt the kernel RPM
with the patch, and haven't had any problems whatsoever. All the people
involved with the Sparc Linux port have truly done a great job.

linux% cat /proc/cpuinfo

Unfortunately, this machine is pretty slow by today's standards :)

Now, if only there was a driver for the ATM cards in this machine:

linux% cd /proc/openprom/io-unit@f,e0200000/sbi@0,0/ba@3,0
linux% ls
atm-speed  interrupts  intr  media  model  name  reg  sahi-revision
linux% cat atm-speed
'SUNI-155'
linux% cat model
'SUNW,SAHI-3'
linux% cat name
'ba'


Does anyone know where I could get information about these cards? I
searched through some mailing list archives on the web and found only one
reference to Linux, but no information as to whether or not documentation
is available. The Sun web site has specifications for a newer ATM chip.  
I don't know if I'll have any spare time, but I might be interested in
trying to hack a driver.


Thanks,

Chris Wing
