since the lord god alex hasn't seen fit to inform anyone, it seems like
i should.  the www.thepuffingroup.com website is no longer being updated
and all the updates are only going to parisc-linux.org.  i have been
updating www.thepuffingroup.com becuase no-one told me that this site
was no longer supposed to be operational and i suspect a large number
of people who subscribe to this list still have it bookmarked.  also,
email sent to willy@thepuffingroup.com is no longer being received by me.
i don't know who gets it, but the sender does not receive a bounce.

We gave LXC's website maintainer grief about this already.

Some time today, I expect (hope?) www.thepuffingroup.com/parisc will be
redirected to www.parisc-linux.org (.com works too).
I've asked mail be sent to this list when it happens.

This should probably bounce since it's been stale for about
11 monthes now...

hope this helps,

I don't know if there's some other secret mailing list I'm missing out
on, but that's the first time I've heard of "parisc-linux.org" I'm sure.
So thankyou for being the one to bring it up.

Will the mailing list be moving as well?  (Given that it belongs with
the project, not the mothballed puffingroup website.)

It was never officially announced, just setup. I guess this is the 
announcement.

Yes, most of the project's web/mail resources will be moving there shortly. Go 
ahead and update your bookmarks. I've been told there will be a 
pointer/redirect from the old site but I wouldn't count on it existing forever.

oh, alex secretly went off and registered it.  the first we heard about
it was in a press release a couple of months ago.  for a while it's
been a (broken) redirect to www.thepuffingroup.com/parisc.  there's a
linuxcare internal mailing list for discussions of the parisc project,
but it wasn't mentioned on there either.

no idea.  alex is playing politics and he's not very good at it.
personally, i think everything should be moved to puffin.external.hp.com
and parisc-linux.org should just redirect to it, but that wouldn't fit
with the aforementioned political games.

um, it was my email address until about 3 months ago.  at least one person
still had that as their preferred email address for me.  if anyone else
does, they should probably change it.  it's the lack of bounce which
concerns me, which implies that someone's receiving it, reading mail
destined for me and not forwarding it on.

Thanks for the reply, Grant. However, the 712s do not have a serial console.
They do have a com port, but it does not work as a console, unfortunately.
So I need do need to get a STI enabled kernel. I dropped Paul Lahaie a note
to see if he could send me such a kernel so I do not have to create the
entire cross-platform development environment just to boot one of these
712s. After I get it, I plan on expanding the 0.5 iso and making a new one
using the STI console kernel.

I've never made an El Torito CDROM, is it possible to have multiple boot
images and a boot loader on a single disc?  ie could the actual boot
image be a boot loader (PALO) which then points at one or more kernels
on the CDROM?

El Torito is a PC thing. It makes the front of a CDROM look like a floppy to 
the PC BIOS. For hppa you put a lifimage on the front of the CDROM(or tape or 
HDD, etc).

Maybe. Paul Bame is the expert though. I think he had to do some work to get 
palo to be able to see a kernel on an ISO9660 filesystem. I don't know if it 
can currently be interruped and pointed at a different kernel. Paul?

[parisc-linux] List of packages for hppa ISO release

[Matt Taggart]

Hi binary-hppa hackers,

I have generated a list of packages that we intend to put in the ISO release 
at the end of this month. The list represents a first pass at what pb, willy, 
and I think should be installed on a parisc linux server box. We have excluded 
packages from non-US for the same reasons that Debian does. The way this list 
was generated was by installing the packages and then running a "dpkg 
--get-selections". If you like you can make your system identical to this list 
by feeding the list to "dpkg --set-selections". The list is available at,

http://puffin.external.hp.com/~taggart/selections.20010525

There are still a few missing dependencies but those should be taken care of 
in the next few days. If you have additions/deletions to the list please send 
them to me.

Thanks,

o ditch ipchains and add iptables instead.

Good idea but netbase depends on ipchains. I'll add iptables.

> o add cvs

We decided that cvs's debconf questions would be confusing to someone who 
didn't intend to setup a cvs repository right away. Not adding it, people can 
just get it from the archive.

Good idea. Which one?

Good idea, but all the memory testers I've seen have been x86 specific. If 
people have specific ones they know will work for hppa then let me know.

sirc is going to violate the POLS for HPUX admins migrating.  The HPPA
archive (auuugh! redundant!) lists BitchX, ircii, and blackened as IRC
clients.  BitchX looks like the _de facto_ standard one from here.

I like epic.  It's not particularly small (the i386 package is 470k),
but it's in main (not non-US) and depends on nothing esoteric, just
libc6 and ncurses5.  It has one of the shortest bug lists of any Debian
package, too, but maybe that's just because everyone uses bitchx.  =)

I just installed it and it seems to have some problems(ncurses?). I also tried 
sirc and it seems to work ok, so we'll go with that for now.

[parisc-linux] Building cvs 2.4.18

[Jeremy Drake]

I just checked out the latest cvs and I am trying to build it.
I copied the arch/parisc/debian-configs/32-smp to .config and ran
make-kpkg -rev jeremyd.0 kernel_image .  It clicks away for a while and
then dies on pcnet32.  I don't need pcnet32, so I removed it from the
config and went on.  Everything build successfully, but the depmod died.
Here's the output

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in

hmm...this must have recently broke since I've built plenty
of SMP kernels with iptables enabled. I've stopped building SMP
for 2.4.18 since SMP is b0rken at the moment. But i don't think
we changed anything related to this since I've stopped...can you
run "make clean;make dep; make vmlinux;make modules" again?

If you can, ditch ipchains. If you need examples on how to
use iptables look at ftp.p-l.o:patches/a500/firewall.

Sorry - I checked and my SMP builds had iptables statically linked in.
My non-SMP builds had iptables as a module. This should be easy to
fix (add missing EXPORT_SYMS to arch/parisc/kernel/parisc_ksyms.c).
If no one beats me to it, I'll do that tomorrow.

I kinda noticed that when my box crashed again.  For now, I'll stop
messing with new versions and stick with my nice, stable 2.4.17-32-smp
debian version 23.  Debian version 32 crashes the box too.  Unfortunately,
23 seems to not detect my video card. I'll have more info when I get some
more time to experiment..

Could you let me know when smp stabilizes?  I may try non-smp today as a
last resort, but I hate wasting hardware ;)

David,

since rcently you can get the mozilla package with a simple "apt-get install
mozilla", so there is no need to go through the excercise of compiling it
yourself (and it takes several hours on older HW - been there). However it
still doesn't run, as far as I know because the threads are still far from
perfect in palinux. There's a couple of other applications suffering from
this too.

For now I use "dillo" on the parisc machines.

Hi,

try apt-get install unzip
then you can unzip *.zip files but the better way is to apt-get install=20
mozilla because it's much faster.
But it doesn't work at the moment because it breaks with an segmentation=
 fault.

to get it running, you need to recompile it with -O optimizing level. The
default -O2 miscompiles mozilla. Ok, this will give you a more sane mozilla,
but it's still not accepting some of the mouse/keyboard events. No idea
why. But there is galeon, which uses mozillas rendering engine, which (also
compiled with -O) gives me a working web browser.

I would say definitely, after this recent press release from the Apache
Software Foundation:

  http://www.apache.org/foundation/news.html

(linking to)

  http://www1.internetwire.com/iwire/release_html_b1?release_id=39838

"ASF reaches agreement with Sun Microsystems to allow open source Java
implementations."

What I _think_ this means (after reading through the full article) is
that we're going to see fully open, 100%-approved Java implementations
running natively in Linux and other alternative operating systems in the
near future.  I don't know what the current issues (if any) are with
building the jdk1.1 or jdk1.2 packages under linux-hppa, but I would
hope that following this announcement HP will (somehow) be able to
assist in getting a production-ready JRE into linux-hppa.

(Caveat: I could have this all wrong of course.)

Once HPUX binary compatibility is working properly the HPUX JRE could
probably be used as well, but if there's a comparable native solution I
don't know if many people will go to that effort.

since the upgrade to mozilla 0.9.9 i can't use galeon any more.

No. I really meant lxr8000:

I basically run the same firewall on all three machines with localized tweaks.

agreed - but this isn't just my own personal creatation. I've gotten
input from other folks who actaully know what they are doing.

Just to set your expectation, inside HP I don't see any commercial
interest in parisc-linux at this time. I can make compute resources
(== faster machines) available for building/testing binaries. But
that's about the level of assistance I see happening from various
parts of HP.

I was hoping (there's that word again) someone would do that.
All parisc machines were sold with a HPUX license. As the owner
of such a machine, you have the right to run the binaries
shipped with the machine. And it comes with lots of useful
binaries (jvm, compiler, X11 stuff, etc).

We aren't. I didn't say gsyprf10.external.hp.com originally?

I seeded ftp.parisc-linux.org/kernels from gsyprf10.
I'll remove the parisc content from gsyprf10 ftp site so there is
no overlap and hopefully no confusion in the future.
Go by date stamps for now until it's cleaned up.

For parisc-linux, yes.
But I maintain a bunch of other x86 boxes...

Re: [parisc-linux] Mozilla, etc.

[Christian Suder]

Thanks Thomas,

that helped quite a bit. I used an older mozilla tree which I had and 
compiled it with -O and it worked with skipstone. I'm now using your 
binaries (saved a couple of hours...;-) with a recent skipstone and it 
works pretty well on a local X display.

It has some issues running remotely (window not always redrawn, hangs 
sometimes). Galeon doesn't want to run at all on a remote display, a couple 
of tasks are spawning but nothing on the screen. This seems to be a generic 
issue with appearantly mostly GTK+ applications. Pan and sylpheed are two 
other apps that don't want to run remotely although they do work on a local 
display.

[parisc-linux] PARISC Linux machines?

[Michael Madden]

Hello;

I was wondering if anyone out there needs older PA-RISC machines to use on
PA-RISC Linux and the Debian 3.0 port to PA-RISC.  I have many 735
workstations, a few 725/715 workstations, and a few C110 workstations.

Right now, they are all collecting dust.  I'd be willing to donate the
machines to someone who will put them to use on the PA-RISC Linux
or Debian 3.0 project.

Thanks,

Michael Madden

Hi Michael,

see http://www.openpa.net (particulary
http://www.openpa.net/about.html). Paul seems to have an interest in
that. I could do with some C110 memory, but it's nbot worth to strip
a working box for that.

Michael,

I'm sure you'll get some interest from people; maybe try a non-spammy
offer in the debian-hppa mailing list.  Some more info you could include
would be what part of the world you live in, and whether you have the
means to ship the boxes or if interested parties need to arrange removal
themselves (ie visit you!).

Thanks Juergen, I wasn't aware of this site's existence.  I don't think
there's a link to it on the parisc-linux.org web site; is this something
we could do?  Under the "User Resources" section of the sidebar would be
a suitable place, I imagine.

Andrew.

Andrew, you get there, but it's a bit hidden:

Select "technical documentation" from the main pa-risc page, other
useful links, you see "Other OS's for pa-risc" listed under "Utilitoes &
Source code". That link takes you there.
But I agree, a direct link from the main page would be more informative.

I agree.  As noted, it's under "Techinical Documentation".
I'd like to see this link "promoted" to the navigation bar or
something more obvious on the navigation bar.

I'll be working on that in the next week or so.
