Re: [SLE] [Slightly OT] Linux on Sparc
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, As far as I know there's no version of SuSE for Sparc platforms (perhaps guys at SuSE can correct what I said and give us a great surprise). A couple of years ago I ran with RedHat in a UltraSparc machine at my university and it was really fastest than Slowaris. Someone in this list talked about SparcLinux... but I don't remember. Maybe it's a new distro... Anyone can remember???

At least here at SuSE, the kernel is not really stable on Ultras. If there's any considerable load, it crashes after a few hours. We also tried the Red Hat version of course ;-) As long as this is not fixed, there'll be no Sparc version from us, I'm afraid.
