OT: Need Sun/Linux advice

IPC is, IIRC, the same performance as a Sparc 1+. The IPX should be exactly the same performance as a Sparc 2, since it is really just a 2 with integrated CG6 frame buffer. The Classic and LX are sun4m architecture. I seem to recall them having faster clock speeds, but about equivalent performance to the IPX (cache and other differences). NetBSD supports audio on all the sun4c boxes (1/1+/2/IPC/IPX/SLC/ELC). It is not supported on the sun4m boxes (SparcClassic and later) as there is supposedly no enough public info on the AT&T chips used for the audio/ISDN. (Actually, there may be one exception- a sun4m with 4c audio hardware, but I forget which one. Does S/Linux support audio yet? <<<john>>> (Sparc 2 owner... anybody got a spare 3/80 motherboard?)
