RE: Sun's SRC/P card, Solaris upgrade SUMMARY

Thanks to all: Tim chipman , Tom Crummey , Frank van der Wolf Basically it looks like upgrade the OS and then update the drivers. However one response showed the drivers for sol8 as likes to sol6 drivers. Could be the latest drivers are all the same. since my drivers are older, I will go with upgrading the drivers Thanks! Ted John ------ FYI , here are the responses....... I upgrade a similar box (e450, with non-os slices in raid through the HW raid card) from Sol 2.6->8 about a month ago. I simply did the upgrade ; confirmed the OS stuff was good ; then uninstalled the appropriate packages, applied the new ones (downloaded from sunsolve) which provided support to this hardware under solaris 8. After a reboot, everything was back to normal (ie, mounts on the HW raid controller were visible again). It was definitely NOT 100% automatic, ie, Solaris8 upgrade did NOT resolve the issue by itself. Hope this helps a bit, -------------------------------------------------------- Hello Ted, I did this: Upgraded the system to Solaris 8. Downloaded the latest SRC/P drivers and firmware from SUN. Installed those drivers. To be really sure, I'd pkgrm the Solaris 7 drivers before the upgrade. Tom. --------------------------------- I got 4 controllers about a month ago. They came with the 2000 Revision A software. The Solaris 7 and 8 packages actually are symbolic links to the Solaris 2_6 software... bash-2.05# pwd /mnt/Solaris_8/Packages bash-2.05# ls -l total 13 drwxr-xr-x 4 root other 2048 Aug 10 2000 SUNWhwrd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 36 Aug 10 2000 SUNWhwrdf -> ../../Solaris_.6/Packages/SUNWhwrdf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 36 Aug 10 2000 SUNWhwrdg -> ../../Solaris_.6/Packages/SUNWhwrdg lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 36 Aug 10 2000 SUNWhwrdm -> ../../Solaris_.6/Packages/SUNWhwrdm drwxr-xr-x 4 root other 2048 Aug 10 2000 SUNWhwrdx lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 34 Aug 10 2000 SUNWvtsd7 -> ../../Solaris_7/Packages/SUNWvtsd7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 34 Aug 10 2000 SUNWvtsdx -> ../../Solaris_7/Packages/SUNWvtsdx I've found this page to be very usefull, as there is hardly any documentation available on docs.sun.com: http://sunsolve5.sun.com/fcs/hwraid-card/ ------------------------------------

SUMMARY: xfree86 on windows 2k connecting to Solaris on sparc

Thanks to those who responded (unfortunately Outlook has thrown a wobbler and I have lost their names). Problem was caused through xfree86 not having the correct fonts available. When pointed at a font server running on one of the sparcs everything worked OK.
