<BR>Cheers for that. I'll download the fedora iso and install it one of our blades next week and let you guys know how I get on. I'm hoping to try to cluster the workstations and server for staff here to use. Nobody seems to want to use Solaris! In the blades I have XVR-100 and XVR-500 graphics card and in the v880 we have a XVR-1200. I'm not holding out that they'll work but I'll test them all anyway.<BR><BR>cheers,<BR>will<BR><BR>----- Original Message -----<BR>From: "Tom \"spot\" Callaway" <tcallawa@redhat.com><BR>Date: Friday, April 3, 2009 4:16 pm<BR>Subject: Re: [Aurora-sparc-user] Aurora still going?<BR>To: Aurora user discussion <aurora-sparc-user@lists.auroralinux.org><BR><BR>> On 04/03/2009 09:23 AM, Will Dowling wrote:<BR>> > <BR>> > Hi,<BR>> > Just wondering if Aurora Linux is still in development?
