Solaris 9 and Intel 845

Hi
I'm trying to get this Intel 845 graphic chip to work with Solaris 9.
I've installed The XFree86 porting kit, tried the VESA driver but it still doesn't work.
Had a look att this page, but it didn't help me.
http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/845driver.html
Any ideas anyone???

After two days of hard work and digging the Sun documents site, I found the following:
Execute the code below to re-scan the SCSI bus and identify any changes made in the storages, like adding or removing virtual disks.
cfgadm -al -o show_FCP_dev c#where c# is the controller number allocated for your SAN
bash-3.2# cfgadm -a
Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition
c5 fc-fabric connected configured unknown
...Cheers,
Andreas

Solaris 8 on Intel 845

Has anyone installed solaris 8 on to an Intel 845 motherboard ?
:-)

No way. Different CPU architecture, you must
recompile the applications from source to intel
binary code.
(Exception: shell scripts and other interpreted
languages, including byte code interpreters ("java"),
run on different solaris architectures without
recompiling)

Tiffsplit crashes on Solaris (sparc and intel), okay on Linux

Hello experts,
I have a tiff file that causes a crash with tiffsplit when run

What could I do to make it work properly on Solaris 9 on Sparc ?
Thanks for your help.

You should have no problems if both are using Sun's Java Runtime enviroment. I believe there are some problems with Microsofts implementation of Java, but I don't know exactly what.

Solaris 8 (Intel) and Voodoo Banshee

Hi all,
I need install the Solaris 8 operation system in a INTeL machine and it has this kind of video card. Please, there is a driver for this video card?
I downloaded the Solari's HCL and I could not see this card in the Capatibility List. If someone have some way to do this, please send me a email or the driver.
Thanks in advance,
Marcelo Muzilli ([email protected])

Hi,
Not sure about Windows 95.
But yes, I have done dual boot with Windows 98 and Solaris 8.
I installed Solaris 8 first, used only 50% of disk for Solaris and then installed Windows 98.
May be somebody else in forum can share their experience with Win95.
Thanks

Viper v330 and Solaris 8 (Intel)

Hi,
I would like installing the solaris 8 in my Intel machine but I have a video card(Vipper v330) that isn't supported by Solaris 8(intel). Please, someone knows what video card supported by solaris is compatible with viper v330?
Thanks so much in advance.
Luciano Freire

You may want to try the standard video drivers that come with the
Solaris, and see if that will work. There are quite a few standard
drivers. You can try others as well.

Forte and Solaris on Intel

Has anyone tried hosting a Forte environment under Solaris on Intel aka.
Solaris 7/8 Intel Platform Editions?

What is the code to increment that static variable?
I assume there is a function in the same translation
unit that performs this increment.
You can trace it in dbx (or with dtrace) to check if
it is ever called.Yes the static variable does get incremented in the same file and the function doing the increment get's called.. Remember this all works fine under Solaris 8.
I'd love to use dbx but we found that we needed to make one huge so file to get dbx running usefully before. Dloading files under dbx didn't seem to work. Remember that this is a huge app and we have modules from all over the place each with a different build strategy.
Something seems to be clobbering my static variables. I'm think that maybe a structure size has changed since Solaris 8 and maybe that's overwriting stuff. Or maybe we did have a memory issue that Solaris 8 ignores. I remember we had plenty of those when upgrading from Solaris 4/6.
But it looks like I may need to roll up my sleeves and try a full recompile. Deep sigh.
Any more help would be appreciated.

Compare Solaris based processor and Intel processor for EBS

We are planning to migrate our 9i database and Application(11.5.10.2) from Solaris to Linux.
Also planning for some major hardware changes.
We want to compare sparc V9 processors and Intel Processor.
Please let us know any documentation which compares both processors
- Bench marck for Solaris and Inter processors
- Any calculation like 1 Inter processor = n Solaris based processor
- Any other related topics .

How to Install Solaris for Intel so that it boots off from a boot floppy?

Hi all,
Sorry to bother you with this one (I went through all documentations/manuals and could not find straight answers to following
specific questions):
I have one hard drive with 1st partition used by Windows XP and a second partition that's a blank FAT 32 (using Partition Magic)
I want to use for Solaris for Intel.
My very specific questions:
(1)That blank Fat32 partition: can I run the Solaris install over it ..or should I absolutely make sure that it's a blank UFS formatted
partition? I am asking you that because all manuals (except one) pretend that I can run my Solaris install on a blank Fat partition...
but I believe that documentation at multiboot.solaris-x86.org stresses that if the partition is not a blank UFS one, it wont install Solaris
(2)As you already know, some Oses like Linux or FreeBSD can be installed on a partition and be booted off a boot floppy.
So without that boot floppy, no trace of the OS. How can I do that with Solaris for Intel. I want my Solaris to boot off a boot floppy only.
BTW, I currently have Solaris 7 for Intel.
Thanks for the answers.

(1)That blank Fat32 partition: can I run the Solaris install over it ..or should I absolutely make sure that it's a blank UFS formatted You can install Solaris to that blank FAT32 drive but Solaris WILL convert it to UFS BEFORE doing the install. In other words, after the install it will be UFS and not FAT32 anymore.
So without that boot floppy, no trace of the OS. How can I do that with Solaris for Intel. I want my Solaris to boot off a boot floppy only.Not that I know of. Some people have reported booting Solaris off of a USB drive though.

Building mod_jk module on Solaris 10 (Intel Platform)

Hi,
I am trying to build a mod_jk module on a Sun Blade 1500 (Solaris 10 Intel Platform). I downloaded the most recent tomcat connector I could find (jakarta-tomcat-connectors-current-src.tar.gz) and have attempted to build it, but I have received the following error:

Anyone have any idea what the problem may be?

I'm not familiar with what you are trying to accomplish,
I'm more of a hardware person, but...
Sun Blade 1500 systems are NOT x86 architecture.
They are UltraSPARC-IIIi systems.
Could that be contributing to what you see?

How do I create an Image of my Solaris 10 (Intel) server?

I'm currently running Solaris 10 (Intel) on a Dell PowerEdge 2650. I'd like to create an Image of the server now that I have all the extra software installed and configured correctly.
I used Symantec Ghost for my Window based servers, does anyone have any suggestions for the best method/software to do the same for my Solaris servers? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Using dd is about the most hideous thing to do since restoring the data will cause you much grief. The best approach would be to use the 'ufsdump' command. You can easily dump your slices into files, and perform either full or interactive restores.
Better yet; whenever you get a bigger disk you won't be wasting space (or risk corrupting data) through the use of dd. Next to data the dd command would also restore the partition table, boot sector, etc. And thats not very good if the disks differ too much.

Interval Timing Issue On Solaris 10/Intel

Not sure this is the right forum for this, but I'll give it a shot. Please redirect me if you think there's a better forum. This is going to look like a "C" problem, but this really is a question about something going on in the interactions between the operating system, the JVM, and a piece of native code we have.
We have an interval timing facility that's implemented over a small set of platform-dependent native timing facilities. The *NIX "itimer" facility is used wherever it exists. On RedHat/Fedora we also implement a timer over the RTC device. On Windows we use a WaitableTimer.
On all platforms there's a Java class that bridges to an appropriate timing facility via the JNI, and to date this has worked great on all platforms except for Solaris 10 on Intel. By "worked great" I mean that the clock tics end up being almost exactly what we expect for a given configured Hz update rate. So... e.g. if we set up a timer for 50 Hz, then we actually get 50 Hz +/- some minor variation much less than 1 second.
On Solaris 10/Intel we set up a 50 Hz itimer in a plain-vanilla C app and we get ~50 Hz, but if we call the same C code from Java via the JNI we almost always end up with ~38Hz.
The amount of Java and native code involved is almost trivial, and the hardware is a smoking fast contemporary PC. We ran over the itimer facility on an old Sparc 5 box and it worked fine.
I've tried tweeking sundry esoteric -X and -XX JVM invocation options with no effect.
J2SDK 1.4.2-07 in all cases.
Thoughts?

I'd think you should be posting in the forum for the Solaris 10 os, not a Java forum. Maybe someone in the Java Native Methods forum would have the necessary Solaris 10 expertise, also.
If you do post elsewhere, either close this out with a final post or put a reference(s) to any other posts and say where you want replies posted, so replies aren't needlessly duplicated.

Interval Timing Issue On Solaris 10/Intel When The JNI Is Involved

If anybody knows let me know at my e-mail [email protected]

I don't think you will have many problems in this platform, but I'm not 100% sure.
What I recommend you is to get the VMWare and try there. VMWare is a software where you can create a virtual machine running under windows. In this virtual machine you could install solaris 10 (and any other OS you want to test in your computer). I have my Solaris 10 running under VMWare with excellent results (Laptop with Intel Celeron processor)... where I have VMWare installed in Windows!
