SS20 and woody problems.



Folks,

I'm  trying to  run woody  on an  SS20 with  a cg6  video  card.  I've
managed  to get  the basic  system  and a  lot of  the services  (name
service,  mail service,  web  service)  running on  it.   I have  some
problems with it though:

1.  I want to  run xdm and use its great  monitor as another terminal.
    However,  I can't  seem to  write an  XFConfig86-4 file  that will
    start the  Xserver properly.  Is  there a program that  will probe
    the system  and write the file  for me?  Is there  somewhere I can
    get good documentation for configuring XFree86 on a SPARC?

2.  I'm assuming  that the problems with  the 2.4.x kernels  on 32 bit
    SPARC problems will  prevent me from compiling a  2.4 kernel under
    Debian.   Can I  download source  from somewhere  else  that might
    work?

3.  PostgreSQL  isn't  supported  for  SPARC architectures.   Is  this
    because there isn't a maintainer?
