The terminal is connected to a Raspberry Pi via a USB-to-serial adapter, and the Pi is running <code>agetty</code> to present a login prompt on the terminal.</p>http://blog.romheat.net/posts/2024/24_09_21_trying_t2/Sat, 21 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000http://blog.romheat.net/posts/2024/24_09_21_trying_t2/<h2 id="trying-t2sde-linux-on-a-sun-sparcstation-5">Trying T2sde Linux on a Sun Sparcstation 5</h2> <p>I have a Sun Sparcstation 5, it has installed NetBSD 9, that was the nearest OS that I could install on it. I wanted to try Linux on it, years ago I was able to install linux on a Ultra 1, from the network using a TFTP server and the process was fun. I learned a lot.</p> <p>Recently I had read about T2sde, a distribution that supports a lot of architectures, including SPARC. I decided to give it a try. There a lot of packages available, and the process sounds easy, and the best the have one of the most recent versions of the Linux kernel. Amazing!</p>http://blog.romheat.net/posts/2023/23_07_16_remotepad/Sun, 16 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0100http://blog.romheat.net/posts/2023/23_07_16_remotepad/<p>Crazy idea to draw over screen using any tablet or phone :-) of course on linux</p> <p>Is a client-server application that allows users to use their tablet devices to draw over their computer screen.
