i want to virtualize my noisy sparc workstation
with the help of qemu and want to know if its possible to
get an system image to run or what other options available
for sparc virtualization

im developing a low-traffic network communication software
and sparc is one of my test platforms

is the sparc emulation good enough for
network communication tests?

my current system specs:
-SUN Ultra 10 SPARC Workstation
-384 MB RAM
-Operating System: Solaris 10 November 2006 - SunOS Release 5.10 
Generic_118833-33 64-bit
-Desktop: CDE 1.6.3, X11 Version 6.6.2
-Compiler: SunStudio 12 - Sun C/C++ v5.9 2007/05/03 (and gcc v.3.4.6)
-Workstation-Info: SUNW,Ultra-5_10;sparc;sun4u

it would be nice to have the desktop running
but i can compile & test my software fully on command line

thx for any help
