Without much problems? So there are some problems? I am just curious :-)

In any case, I guess the fact that auric has been running Sparc Linux
for some time now (more than a year?) is a testament to how solid Linux
on Sparc is.  The workload on auric must be pretty high at all times,
from all points of view (network, CPU, disk I/O, etc.)

P.S. 'tcpdump host xxxxx' was causing Oops in 2.4.19-pre8 for me. I
upgraded today to 2.4.19-pre9 and the problems disappeared.
