I tried your instructions, however it didn't complete. Here's where it stopped. By the way, I have a really hard time understanding the version numbering within the UltraPenguin distribution. It seems to me that the UltraPenguin-1.1.9 has been evolving under the same name for months. I wonder if it would be wise to change to something simple based on the date like WINE. What do you think? ##### this is the result of "make" ###### sparc64-linux-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -m64 -pipe -mno-fpu -mcpu=ultrasparc -mcmodel=medlow -ffixed-g4 -fcall-used-g5 -fcall-used-g7 -Wno-sign-compare -c -o fonts.o fonts.c fonts.c:61: #error No fonts configured. fonts.c: In function `fbcon_find_font': fonts.c:72: warning: comparison is always 0 due to limited range of data type make[3]: *** [fonts.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.4/drivers/video' make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.4/drivers/video' make[1]: *** [_subdir_video] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.4/drivers' make: *** [_dir_drivers] Error 2 -- Ryan
