I think all machines except stadler and sompek are US IIIi machines. The problem with US IIIi is, that sun never published the cpu specs - they would have done it if somebody would have paid for the lawyers to look trough them before publishing. US IIi support was implemented by a student working at SUN under NDA and US IV and later was published. So I think if dropping (official) support for US IIIi CPUs would keep the port alive, we should do that. Running Debian on the more recent machines makes more sense anyway imho. The older ones are nice, but they consume a loooot of power. - -- Bernd Zeimetz Debian GNU/Linux Developer http://bzed.de http://www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: ECA1 E3F2 8E11 2432 D485 DD95 EB36 171A 6FF9 435F -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Icedove - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJR7DExAAoJEOs2Fxpv+UNffpcP/2Rs12KtUr1R8Fj/SUFsGTGi Qq4IyIsq6T9+0be/Q2NT+8vKhqy9eAfLIGPYfEfMP/gQUXHxqURF7452FCum5pCe PPbhpGMFL67rX9I9tdNbYGEcD6KnHksHc64PaV4FkCd5W/dvQzaVHxfP5I7TjFL2 JQVrfqYTi546kPN7kqo6YhNNC+jFRBJOxB+2RhdEddg12xU9/08/YIy865qJqXSP 0X+xBfiGu040AKUC+Ml4ZjFGKDnCOKhuuAKDYnyZLjLSFjTkE00WowKDS8JmJRLC ls89Xha2K4Sk01io+f4iermCjRsHD/GvS4mNIG5HsEQYHROdWoCFNRl4hAdGI0zZ CvFnxaJLwQ+cd0dsoFO/OkuRLTYOrjHKTniOjrWcgaOl0L6C6K4Jhyh+jpl2GmO/ sUs/K3jtUBos5Q1ojetmm/rAXjEFe3giOokosUP1DOB8fWUnYqRDYf5ODOeEucot nzl6lfvp+g2nQVQAAOqpSqxCYYhue23Mg8ZYfW1L/I8mNIvClrcSVfHAAP3URQeY eDGoyPNX6AIYiFX8J121ynfMa/TujGURfoPcQWWGFb3NyJ4/RM/FrTAAseldcIlW 2nfpRUX118LEYLQ6Jj4JQn7Ci6lL+SUgI2HfSRu/5a1aoBrEVhVF5ItUbMU6B0Vx YTnzPB7WteSULAbu90Iz =H+fH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
