Yes, the 64 bit Solaris implementation for AMD64/EM64T is closely modeled after the 64 bit SPARC support; there's only one release to install and that release supports both 32 bit and 64 bit binaries simultaneously, when the default 64 bit kernel is booted. the number of general purpose registers was doubled, 32 bit applications enjoy better performance on 64 bit kernels as the kernel runs faster.

Yes. One of the most important goals of the UltraSPARC project was full binary compatibility with existing SPARC hardware and software. There are some things you should keep in mind though: if you broke the rules but got away with it in the previous generations of SPARC machines, your luck may just have run out. When developing the UltraSPARC it was discovered that some code generators didn't leave all "reserved" bits in opcodes zero.

The 64-bit versions will only work on newer Intel Itanium based hardware. The 32-bit versions will work on all x86 compatible hardware (such a Pentium III, 4, etc).

bit memory is commonly known as ECC memory. It has an additional 8 bits for Error Correction Check 64 bit memory is non-ECC. 72 bit or 64 bit configuration are typically found in 168 pin DIMMs bit memory is commonly known as parity memory. It has an additional 4 bits for parity checking. 32 bit memory is non-parity. 32 bit or 36 bit configuration are typically found in 72pin or 30 pin SIMMs

Sync and halt your system to enter the OpenBoot monitor (ok prompt). Examine the boot-file parameter:

Yes, there is SunOS emulation, you will require the shared libraries from SunOS (See the related question in the Running section). Solaris as well as NetBSD/OpenBSD support is being worked on. Miguel on the Solaris emulation: Solaris emulation is not yet finished, but will let you run small Solaris programs (Solaris Netscape does not work for example). You need the ibcs2 package, compile it, create the devices with the script on the package and insert the module.

Microsoft created an add-on for called Win32S that allows some (but not all) 32 bit programs to run on Windows 3.1. You can download it from:

Please rephrase your question - you can run from the RUN dialog > COMMAND or CMD .. if you mean during bootup, it is not possible, other than to enter safe mode and starting command prompt from there every time i try to start cmd.

Use our Mono Migration Analysis tool to check if everything that your application uses has been implemented in Mono or if there are special considerations to keep in mind. The Mono API today is somewhere in between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0, see our Roadmap for details about what is implemented.

init 6 How to find out in which mode is my system running and what are the steps to have Firewall -1 installed in 32 bit mode Try ( # isainfo -b or # isalist ) it displays your OS Architecture 64 or 32 Bit. If its in 64 Bit continue with the procedure. /usr/sbin/eeprom |grep boot-file If it displays boot-file=/platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/unix then you are in 64 bit OS.

When using find if you use the iname option you'll be able to locate files regardless of the case of the filename.

It shows doing the exact same thing on the same hardware, 64 is actually a little bit slower… Intel has also confirmed that 64 bit code may be slightly slower. I don’t know I am not a programmer. However as you can read from the above article if you read all the techno speak, 64 bit version actually requires the cpu to do more work…

If doscmd will not suffice, the add-on utility emulators/pcemu emulates an 8088 and enough BIOS services to run many DOS text mode applications. It requires the X Window System.

Not at this time. GeoClock for Windows uses the Win16 API. This runs fine on Win3.x, OS/2, Win9x, WinME, WinNT, and WinXP, and the Win3.x emulator on the Mac. We are working on a 32 bit version, but surprisingly, this effort has proven harder than the conversion from DOS to Win16. One of the biggest problems is that the 32 bit version is a moving target (thanks, Bill!).

Try the following configure options: ./configure --target=athlon_xp --cc="gcc -m32" --as="as --32" --with-extralibdir=/usr/lib Compilation stops with an error message similar to this one: cfft.c: In function'passf2': cfft.c:556: unable to find a register to spill in class 'FLOAT_REGS' cfft.

The Delphi 1 environment is for Windows 3.1 and 16 bit. The only significant difference to you is that the 32 bit (Delphi 4 and higher) environment handles long file names. In the example grammars the Cocol code is the same for each environment. However, because of changes made to the Delphi compiler some minor changes to embedded Delphi code has been necessary in some cases. The code generated by Cogencee is the same for Delphi 1 and Delphi 4 and higher.

Neither Visual C++ nor Visual Basic supports using 16-bit DLLs from 32-bit code; nor does any other compiler. It is possible to use 16-bit DLLs from a 32-bit program, but there is no (standard) automatic tool to do this. You have to code it manually. write a 16-bit application that calls the DLL, and communicate with the 16-bit app via some IPC mechanism (COM, DDE, Windows messages, etc) This is the last choice you have that can work the same way on 95/98/Me and NT4/Win2K. implement thunking.

Press the 'Start' button on the desktop and highlight the folder called 'Programs'. This will cause several other folders to appear one of which is called 'SPIDR'. Highlight this folder and a shortcut called 'FC32' will appear. Click on this and Flowcom 32 will begin running. When I try to open Flowcom 32 on my laptop I get the following error: "Error reading Print Dialog-> Copies: Win32 Error. Code: 123. The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

Before the make install step on unix-y systems, dynamically built "executables" in a Subversion source tree are actually libtool-generated shell scripts which re-link and run the real binary.

By default, gcc will often optimize away private variables and functions, inlining the associated operations. This can complicate stepping through the code in a debugger. That's "dash ohh zero".) Alternately, you can make this change more permanent by running configure as follows: For a production install, remember to undo this operation before installing Subversion from source, by re-running make or configure without the extra flag.

Some versions of the GTK+ library from www.sunfreeware.org appear to be buggy, causing Wireshark to drop core with a Bus Error. Un-install those packages, and try getting the 1.2.10 version from that site, or the version from The Written Word, or the version from Sun's GNOME distribution, or the version from the supplemental software CD that comes with the Solaris media kit, or build it from source from the GTK Web site. Update the GLib library to the 1.2.

How does Qemu know to exit? I am emulating Linux on Linux, and no matter how I shutdown, Qemu doesn't exit on its own.

Although none of the developers think it is particularly relevant, this question comes up frequently enough in the mailing lists that it is answered here. www.openbsd.org and the main OpenBSD ftp site are hosted at a SunSITE at the University of Alberta, Canada. These sites are hosted on a large Sun system, which has access to lots of storage space and Internet bandwidth. The presence of the SunSITE gives the OpenBSD group access to this bandwidth. This is why the main site runs here.

Yes, you can run PostgreSQL in a Solaris Container and this is described in the How To Guide available at http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/howtoguides/postgresqlhowto.jsp#3. This is an excellent way to improve the security of your PostgreSQL installation.

Sun hardware released after Solaris 8 no longer supports 32 bit booting; you can only run 64 bit kernels on those. This applies to all Ultra-III systems as well as the Sun Blade 100 and other UltraSPARC-IIe systems. SPARC: In order to boot a 32 bit kernel on other 64-bit capable systems, type "boot kernel/unix" at the "ok" prompt. x86: In order to boot a 32 bit kernel on other 64-bit capable systems, type "b kernel/unix" at the "(b)oot or ..." prompt.
