[ Also posted at http://www.sunshack.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=59 ... ] Hi everyone, I was able to sort out the problem with fans for the SB1000 system using some new Papst 12 VDC fans I bought from an Ebay seller that I fixed to the mounting frame (they are not as deep as the fans the frame was intended for so I secured them by drilling holes in the plastic frame and bolting them in place). I've got the system going and have the old 73 GB 80-pin SCSI disk running happily in an external box until I get the time to use ufsdump/ufsrestore to copy the filesystems over to the new 73 GB FCAL disk I bought. I've got an issue with the system which seems that it might be an Xscreensaver bug (why is that not surprising?) which results in the machine rebooting with a CPU error randomly. It did it at 3.45 am today, and just after I got home from work a short while ago. The screensaver was running at the time, hence the possible Xscreensaver connection. I remember that there have been Xscreensaver bugs tripping strange hardware faults in the past with other Sun platforms... I'll have to see if there are any patches that I can access via the public SunSolve patch portal (don't have access to the private area). Is anyone else aware of a problem of this sort with a SunBlade 1000 system running Solaris 9? Regards, Craig. -- Post by Craig Dewick (tm). Web @ "http://lios.apana.org.au/~cdewick".
