News & Announcements
                              
     * Hardware Database updated.
        Matthew & Dave have substantially updated the Hardware Database
            including correcting the CPU types, adding new drivers,
            adding PCI devices and fixing some of the ioscan output. If
            you have any machines running HPUX 10 or greater which aren't
            listed, please submit your ioscans to the database.
     * ELF work continuing
        Paul has put in a lot of work getting the ELF kernel booting.
            Once more people have reported success with ELF kernels,
            we'll switch all development over to ELF.
     * RPMs and DEBs available
        Thanks to Dave O'Neill and Dave Huggins-Daines, we have
            crosscompiling toolchains available from
            ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/parisc/binaries for x86.
            Does anyone want to produce .depot files for us?

CVS Page

   Following on from last week's exciting look at the status page, this
       week's featured page is the CVS page. Newly updated to reflect
       reality, it tells you which repositories are available and how to
       access them.
