| Currently, the vanilla 2.6.0 has broken keyboard/mouse and serial |
| 7 |
| port support on SBUS based sparc64 machines. Additionally, the loading of |
| 8 |
| ANY console font at boot time will make any sparc64 keyboard unusable. |

No worries - just give us what you can support. If 2.6 is impossible, |
| 11 |
2.4.23 will be fine. |

| gcloop does build on sparc however, though the prerequisite packages |
| 22 |
| currently either lack sparc and/or ~sparc keywords. I also have not |
| 23 |
| tested it's functionality. |

Don't worry too much about gcloop for 2004.0. Daniel, correct me if I am |
| 27 |
wrong, but my understanding is that for 2004.0, we will be using regular |
| 28 |
loop, not gcloop for compatibility sakes. |
