centos on sun sparc
Presently running Synopsys on a Sun V240 SPARC IIIi server and I'm thinking about wiping the drives and installing CentOS 4 in place of Solaris 9.
Why?
1.)Can get the O/S patches without having to give Sun $800 for a support contract.
2.)Hope it will help solve problems with OpenGL on ssh'ed in clients.
What experiences have any of you had with running Synopsys under CentOS on a Sun SPARC server?
I'm running Cadence on a Sun V40 (x86-based) server and that's working out very well, but that's the architecture Linux was originally designed to run on.
I sure would appreciate any feedback you guys and gals have to share.
Thanks!
John
