Re: X/GDM fails on Ultra 10 w/ Creator 3D under Lenny

[Jon Pruente <jdpruente@gmail.com>]

Just gave 5.0.0 an install.  X/GDM fails, complaining of missing the sunffb module(s).  I didn't nab the X.org output before I wiped the system though.  It sure seem X is really broken on UPA cards.  I'll have to give it a shot on the built-in video and see what it does.

Looks like this got broken by the xorg-server patch in lenny r1.  You
should be able to install the version of the xserver-xorg-core package
released with lenny r0 and use that.
I'd appreciate a patch to fix this mess though, as I can't fix this
myself, not having any sparc hardware.  Otherwise I guess sparc X users
will be SOL on lenny...

Cheers,
