I saw here before back in early December of 2011 a most of someone saying that it seemed that the nouveau drivers almost worked with him and is Sun Ultra 10. I am someone who is very fond of my Sun systems, I have two "SunBlade 100"s, and a "Sun Ultra 5". I have always been annoyed at the lack of good video card options when using these systems. I would love to have more room on my screen then 1024x768. So when I saw this post on the list <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/nouveau/2011-November/009619.html">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/nouveau/2011-November/009619.html</a> from Patrick Baggett <a href="mailto:nouveau%40lists.freedesktop.org?Subject=Re%3A%20%5BNouveau%5D%20nouveau%20on%20Linux/sparc64%20--%20almost%21&In-Reply-To=%3C4ECC47F8.6020802%40gmail.com%3E" title="[Nouveau] nouveau on Linux/sparc64 -- almost!">baggett.patrick at gmail.com</a>. I kept my eyes open for some good old PCI Geforce. Well... I have a Geforce, but it's not that old. I got my hands on a GeForce 8400 GS PCI and yesterday tried it on Debian Squeeze. Well the module oops. So I felt the next best thing was to try again with Wheezy, Debian unstable. I got a little farther down the DRM driver initialization but it still oopses. I was wondering if any progress has been made since November. Is there a ticket for this bug somewhere? I'd like to try and give a hand with fixing the driver so that it works with Sparc64 systems. I have experience with the Sparc architecture. I don't have much experience with debugging drivers. I have a SunBlade 100, Sun Ultra 5, and an x86_64 system to test on. I've attached the relevant message logs. I'm going to try to learn how to start building the DRM module from source and start learning what I can do to fix it. I hope that there are still some people other then me interested in solving this problem. </body> </html>
