Installing Solaris 8 with a NVIDIA RIVA TNT MODEL 64 video board

I'm trying to find out if anybody knows of any compatible drivers for the NVIDIA RIVA TNT MODEL 64 video board for Solaris 8.
I can install Solaris using 640 x 480 with 16 colours, and that works without any problem, but the installation does not seem to have any compatible drivers.
I've tried contacting NVIDIA but have not received any reply.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Mark,
It appears as if this particular chipset is supported as suggested
in the Hardware Compatibility List.
The -- in the bus field indicates that this chipset is used on different video devices whether they be motherboard integrated
video cards or dedictaed video cards. (Check the notes at the top
of the video display adapter listings).
The note also explains that there is no guarantee that the same
chipset will work with all video devices; only a selceted number
of devices with this chipset have been tested.
I just located a report where this particular chipset caused exactly the same problem. The TNT2 was integrated into a Microstar 694D motherboard. A full investigation was not carried out as the customer in this case closed the call having used a different card.
As far as I know, the NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 chipset has successfully been
tested on the Diamond Viper V770 and Creative Labs 3D Blaster RIVA TNT2.
Upon bootup what is the BIOS level of the card as reported? Another
engineer has managed to test a card with TNT2 BIOS 2.05.04, 32MB.
I think that webstart problems were avoided by installing directly from the SOftware CD's 1of 2 and 2 of 2 in non graphics mode (opting not to specify video at the kdmconfig screens)

[Athlon64] AGP problem with my new MSI K8N NEO4-F

Yes I managed exactly that. I've been out of the computer building business for a while so I didn't know the graphics ports had changed.
I will invest in a graphic card as well, thanks for putting me on track
(The manual sais something about the port supporting 8x agp though? )

Dual OS system booting issue - Solaris with Windows XP Pro

Hi,
I have installed Windows XP Professional with SP2 on my laptop Dell Inspiron 6400 (Intel Core 2 Duo). I created partition as below,
C: 25GB (Primary : Active) Installed XP
D: 15GB (Primary) - Tried to install Solaris here
F: 10GB (Primary)
G: 20 GB (Logical)
H: 20 GB (Logical)
1. I tried to install Solaris 10, booted up system from DVD and selected Solaris. I got a message related to "License..." and it stopped right there, nothing showed up on screen after the message. I forced it to shutdown.
2. Next, I tried with Solaris Express Developer edition DVD. I was able to proceed until "Install" option. After clicking "Install" button, it reported some account name(no account name found) setting problem and quitted from installation. It asked to remove the DVD manually. But I was not able to eject it, got stuck. I switched off it and removed DVD.
When I bootup the system next time from HDD or CD or USB bootable backup, it showed blank screen and blinking cursor. I am not able to boot system with Win XP or USB Win Xp bootable. I am able to enter BIOS setup.
Please let me know how to boot up Win Xp and install Solaris with it.

with my little experience i find solaris 10 isn't able to install on sata hdd but with solaris express edition 5.11 i was able to install it on my lap top toshiba tecra and now i can boot with xp sp2 and solaris i hope this answer your question .

DefaultTableCellRender not working on solaris with JDK1.3.1

HI,
I have upgraded my JRE from 1.2.2 to 1.3.1. I was using
the following piece of code
column = new TableColumn(1,200);
column.setCellRenderer(new DefaultTableCellRenderer());
this was working fine with Jre 1.2.2 where i just was painting the cell with blue/green colors based on some conditions. but once i migrated from jre 1.2.2 to jre1.3.1 without changing the code, i found that it is working the same way with windows environment but it's not able to paint the cells properly with solaris 5.8 environment. to paint the cells I am using Color class. I was using
color1 = new Color(144,202,182); //light green
Color2 = new Color(145,168,199) //light blue
however on solaris both of them are being displayed as light blue colour.
I want to know what could be the reason for such behaviour? Are ther any patches available for the solaris with jre1.3.1 so that this problem can be fixed.

Try this:

Getting NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 to work?

Hi,
i'm trying to get my video card to work correctly. It seems to be:
NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro GPU
I checked in Xorg's logs and it seems it wants a driver called nvidia-71xx. I checked in the repositories and it doesn't seem to be there. I found a package on the Nvidia site but it asks me to compile a custom kernel or something like that. Anybody knows what's the proper way to make this card works? The Nvidia packages on the site didn't seem to work on it, they are all too new, even the old one.
EDIT: Saw the post about the new package and installed it. I now get a bunch of lines on screen but no image.
Last edited by Greenstuff (2009-07-14 22:48:22)

As far as I know you would need the 71.XXX series of the driver. Unfortunately nvidia did not update it for use with xorg >1.5.
Check out this thread:
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=122436
There is a small chance that we may add support in the future, but there currently are no plans to do so, as Aaron said.
What do you mean with "and no new 'nv' driver's added"? What das X -configure say which drivers are available?

Migrating Solaris with out migrating Sun Studio

HI ,
Currently we are using sun studio 8 on solaris 8 to compile our application(C++).
We are planning to migrate Solaris 8 to solaris 10. Will there be any problems, If we use sun studio 8 on sun solaris 10.
Thanks and Regards,

However, it is rather old, it predates Solaris 10 and having all latest patches installed is a must (see http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/patches/ss8_patches.html for list of patches available).
If your final goal is to upgrade both OS and compiler, then switching to Solaris 10 and staying with Sun Studio 8 is a good idea; this way you minimize differences. After dealing with OS differences, you will be able to upgrade to Studio 12 update 1 (most recent release) more smoothly. Latest Sun Studio release is preferable because
- its compiler better conform to the standard,
- they generate better code,
- whole suite works better on Solaris 10 since it was developed and tested on Solaris 10,
- IDE is a huge improvement compared to Sun Studio 8.
However, if you choose to stay with Sun Studio 8 (remember, end of support life is just one year away), I'd recommend purchasing support contract so that if you happen to run into a problem, it is solved with Sun Studio 8 patch, not in the next Sun Studio release (13?), which will be unacceptable for you.

Solaris 7 x86 STB Velocity 128 AGP 4MB w/TVout

Solaris 7 x86 STB Velocity 128 AGP 4MB w/TVout is not in the HCL
the chipset is nvidia RIVA 128 v1.82
I already know that this card is not supported in Solaris 7 nor is it even supported by the manufacturer. (STB is out of business and 3dfx is only supporting Legacy VOODOO products).
It is a 3D card and works under OpenGL and other 2d and 3d conventions. I would love to find a compatible driver for it for Solaris 7 on intel. Have already been to xfree86, xig.com(accelerated X) and www.3dfx.com to no avail. If I am able to get the specs I may try my hand at a device driver and submit it to sun for valiation. Or have YOU (yeah, you know I am talking to you) already built a compatible driver for this card?
Has anyone built a driver for Solaris for this card>

MS6398 AGP problem

Trying to install new 845 Ultra board in existing system. Have old Viper V770U AGP video card. Board will not boot. Tried newer GeForce 440 AGP card. Same thing. Currently have old PCI card and at least it boots. Not sure which voltage the AGP cards are. (How can you tell?). Board's BIOS is at v 3.0 out of the box. Haven't run LiveUpdate yet. Are there any reports of AGP problems with these cards?

Thank you very much for your help. I have already tried everything that you write. I have reinstalled windows many times and put my computer completely apart and put it togheter again pice by piece but with no luck.
The guide that the error meassage refer to did not follow with the card but I have read ATI`s guides on theyre homepage. http://www.ati.com/support/manualpdf/Getting_Startedx800.pdf
I have read the manuals many times and done everything. It was only one thing that was written that was new to me and that was a little pin/or jumper or so on the back of the card. It was for changing between pal and ntsc. I have tried every combinations but with no luck.
Now I am using a completly clean windows installation, but all the software based issues are not related to the fact that the PC will just not boot with the card installed. I have even cleaned all the new cables and taken away dust and so on. I am 23 years old now and have had computers since I was 10 years old(I guess 10 or 15 differnt) but never had any trouble that I could not solve. This hover I find strange. I will ship the card back to the reseller in one day or to.
I am lucky that a norwegian law grants me all the money back (about 400 US dollars) in 2 weeks after buy no matter what the reason is. I only have to pay for shipping.

VIA KM4M-V motherboard CPU speed and AGP problem

Hello. Please be patient I am not technical I would say I'm intermediate, so please if anyone is kind enough to help, please don't blind me with jargon! I have 2 problems I believe are motherboard related, I shall go thru them both. Any solutions/suggestions will be very gratefully received! Operating system is Win XP Pro SP 2 running 512 MB RAM (64 used at moment for onboard graphics)
I purchased this mother board: VIA KM4M-V. I also purchased an AMD Sempron PR2600+ which should be showing a speed of 1833 Mhz, but is coming up as 1466 MHz. Does anybody have any info please? I have downloaded and installed all the latest deivers and BIOS for the motherboard, and the MSI live monitor says there are no new updates now. Is there something in BIOS I need to change? Or is this a mistake on the manufactuers part? If so, which one? LOL
2nd problem: The onboards graphics weren't good enough for some games I had - it required an AGP card. So I have purchased an ATI Radeon 9550 256 MB AGP card. OK I installed this card. All OK starting up. installed drivers, restarted computer. Was OK then changed to 32 bit colour and change the resolution of screen. When I clicked apply went into energy saving mode. Rebooted. As soon as it went to boot into windows, the monitor went into energy saving mode. Once it didn't straight away and windows started then the screen went distorted then it went into energy saving mode. I went into safe mode uninstalled the graphics hardware booted into windows again and reinstalled looked OK then I rebooted and it did it again grrrrrrrrr I went and disabled onboard graphics (ATI said might be issue on their site) still won't boot. Something I am doing wrong? Is it the motherboard?
I'm thinking that it is both botherboard ::koff:: I mean motherboard It's OK I mean it's better than what I had, but I know it's not what it should be! I am grateful to you guys for your help. Thanks very much
Rachie

Quote from: psywhizz on 16-February-05, 10:01:00
More on this! I am running win xp pro sp 2 BTW. I have been swapping between the onboard graphics and the ATI radeon 9550 AGP card I just got. I have been disabling onboard graphics, then installing from scratch (all virus and programs off). As to power supply/amperes? I have no idea all I know is it's a 450 watt rating and has ummmm 230 on back (volts?) it's pretty new I got it like 5 months ago
OK I can get it sort of working when I go into the BIOS and set it from 8x to 4x. The graphics advanced setting was showing 4x. The motherboard is SUPPOSED to support 8x but it just won't work at all in that mode. It works for awhile in 4x mode. No specific amount of time I have current drivers on everything! Then the same old thing happens! Monitor goes to energy saving mode or computer restarts. On restart can use it again for a limited time again, and then the mouse pointer kinda goes funny and it freezes. It goes pixalated and if I move it this 'block' goes up and down in a line only. Most of the time has been trying to start AOL (my ISP) it goes off then. Have tried different rates (went down to 16 bit) and desktop sizes (went down to the one above 800x600) no go. I took the refresh rates to 60, tried everything. I have taken it out again.
I don't know if it a motherboard problem, the graphics card or a combo! I just paid £54.99 for the graphics card, and don't want to waste it! What should I do. It's really frustrating!

How do I Help Apple Care Stop Warring with Each Other and Fix the Problem with My iPhone that They Acknowledge Creating?

How Do I Help Apple US & Apple Europe Stop Warring With Each Other And Fix The Problem They Created?
PROBLEM
Apple will not replace, as promised, the iPhone 5 (A1429 GSM model) that they gave me in London, UK, with an iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model).
BACKGROUND
My iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model) was purchased this year in September on an existing Verizon Wireless (VZW) line using an upgrade. The purchase took place in California and the product was picked up using Apple Personal Pickup through the Cerritos Apple Retail Store. I will refer to this phone at my "original" phone.
The original phone was taken into the Apple Store Regent Street in London, England, UK on November 15, 2012. The reason for this visit was that my original phone's camera would not focus.
The Apple Store Regent Street verified there was a hardware problem but was unable to replace the part.
The Apple Store Regent Street had me call the US AppleCare. At first they denied support, but then a supervisor, name can be provided upon request, approved the replacement of my original phone with an iPhone 5 (A1429 GSM model) as a temporary solution until I got back in the US. And approved that the GSM model would be replaced with a CDMA model when I came back to the US. I will refer to the GSM model as the "replacement". They gave me the case number --------.
The Apple Store Regent Street gave me the replacement and took the original. The first replacement did not work for reasons I do not understand. They switched out the replacement several times until they got one that worked on the T-Mobile nano SIM card that I had purchased in England, UK. Please refer to the repair IDs below to track the progression of phones given to me at the Apple Store Regent Street:
Repair ID ----------- (Nov 15)
Repair ID ----------- (Nov 16)
Repair ID ----------- (Nov 16)
The following case number was either created in the UK or France between November 15 to November 24. Case number -----------
On November 19, 2012, I went to France and purchased an Orange nano SIM card. The phone would not activate like the first two repair IDs above.
On November 24, 2012, I went to the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps. The Genius told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault. They had me call the AppleCare UK.
My issue was escalated to a tier 2 UK AppleCare agent. His contact information can be provided upon request. He gave me the case number -----------.
The UK tier 2 agent became upset when he heard that I was calling from France and that the France Apple Store or France AppleCare were not helping me. He told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault.
The UK tier 2 agent said he was working with engineers to resolve my problem and would call me back the next day on November 25, 2012.
While at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps, a Genius switched the phone given to from repair ID ----------- with a new one that worked with the French nano SIM card.
Also, while at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps, I initiated a call with AppleCare US to get assistance because it seems that AppleCare UK was more upset that France was not addressing the issue rather than helping me. I have email correspondance with the AppleCare US representative.
A Genius at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps switched the replacement with a new GSM model that worked on the French SIM card but would not work if restored, received a software update, or had the SIM card changed. This is the same temporary solution I received from the Apple Store Regent Street in the UK.
By this point, I had spent between 12-14 hours in Apple Store or on the phone with an AppleCare representative.
Upon arriving in the US, I went to my local Apple Store Brea Mall to have the replacement switched with a CDMA model. They could not support me. He told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault. My instructions were to call AppleCare US again.
My call with AppleCare US was escalated to a Senior Advisor, name can be provided upon request, and they gave me the case number -----------. After being on the phone with him for over an hour, his instructions were to call the Apple Store Regent Street and tell them to review my latest notes. They were to process a refund for a full retail priced iPhone 5 64BG black onto my credit card so that I could use that money to buy a new iPhone 5 64GB black at the Apple Store Brea Mall to reoslve the problem.
The Apple Store Regent Street did not process my refund. He, name can be provided upon request, told me that the AppleCare US did not do a good job reviewing my case, that they were incapable of getting to the bottom of it like they were, and instructed me to call AppleCare US and tell them to review this case number and this repair id. I asked if he read the notes from the AppleCare US Senior Advisor and he would not confirm nor deny. When I offered to give him the case number he accepted but it seemed like would do no good. Our call was disconnected. When I tried calling back the stores automated system was turned on and I could not get back through.
Now I have the full retail price of an iPhone 5 64GB black CDMA on my credit card and Apple will not process the refund as they said they would.
I've, at this point, spent between 14-16 hours at Apple Stores or on the phone with AppleCare representatives, and still do not have the problem resolved.
SOLUTION
AppleCare US and AppleCare Europe need to resolve their internal family issues without further impacting their customers.
Apple is to process a refund to my credit card for the cost of a full retail priced iPhone 5 64GB black.
DESIRED OUTCOMES
I have an iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model) that works in the US on VZW as it did before I received the replacement phone in the UK.
Apple covers the cost of the solution because I did not create the problem.
Apple resolves their internal issue without costing me more time, energy, or money.
This becomes a case study for AppleCare so that future customers are not impacted like I have been by their support system.
Does anyone have recommendations for me?
Thank you!
<Edited by Host>

Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple?

I have an older version of Adobe Digital Editions (around 3 years old) and was very happy with it.
Then I had problems with my Kobo Reader and asked a friend who works in IT to assist. She could not fix the Kobo but she messed up my Addobe. She downloaded version three and I have an account and a password - was not able to transfer my books from my reader to version three (and I don't like the lay-out - I would prefer to stay with the old version as I also loose all my download date info..)
But all the books I have bought over the last three years are in the old Adobe Digital and I cannot access them any more. When I use it I get the message "that the document is licensed to a different account. I can't even open the books on my computer.
When I go to my Kobo library, I cannot also not open my books and get the message "this doc is protected by adobe digital rights management and is not currently authorized for use with your adobe. please sign in with your authorized adobe id and try again"
I believe the problem is that I do not seem to have a digital id for my old adobe or that the Kobo is not in sync with it anymore.
can you please help me - going on vacation in three days and cannot go without books.

Please authorize ADE 3 with same credentials that you used with older version of ADE
