Today had a number of interesting things happen. First, the total solar eclipse. Next, it's the first day of summer solstice. Then, we have Mars making a quick pass near earth. And finally, it is the 42nd day since the passing of Douglas Adams. What a strange set of coincidences.SUNW,Ultra-1
Damn those LANCE ethernet ports. You should take this to understand that I have not yet gotten "theseus" working properly yet; runs Solaris 8 like a champ, but so far I'm not able to talk to the ethernet port, in either 32-bit or 64-bit mode (as a side point, if you have a CG3 right now, don't plan on using it under 64-bit Solaris 8; there's a CG6 driver, but no CG3...and yes, I know about the deadlock problem with Ultra-1s less that 200 MHz in 64-bit mode, don't worry). The interface is configured correctly, but there's no link light on the hub. Grr. Surprisingly, I'm not getting the incessant "le0: link down or cable problem?" messages. I poked around eBay a bit, and found a 10/100 Sun Swift card for about $70, but I'd really rather get le0 working properly.
