Jake's p4 branch had working code (I've been using my u30 as my main desktop for about 6 months now, until the monitor went on the fritz yesterday), except the latest p4 code causes XFree86 to reset my machine at startup. I believe there are some integration issues in getting this merged into the CVS tree. > I have a not-for-profit organisation where we want to > put 5.x on UE30 with Creator3D cards to be used as Xterminals, > hanging off a FreeBSD/i386 4-stable server. Be aware that 4.x's NFS code doesn't like talking to sparc64 clients - it causes the i386 server to double fault. 5.x as a server is perfectly happy though.
