@pozorvlak @simontatham all my config is in #git, and the script that applies the contents of the repository to my home for is unreasonably portable. It even works on #HPUX! If my config doesn’t apply cleanly anywhere I make it more portable immediately.

I managed to get HP-UX to boot on the HP9000/370 in the Virtual OS Museum on macOS, but running under two emulators, it’s unfortunately way too slow—I barely managed to type in the uname command.
I wonder whether it’s any faster with MAME running directly on macOS…

Last update for couple of days, checked the software and we seem to be missing most packages. I have now downloaded the most recent software release so let's see if we can upgrade.
Problem with upgrading is, you need a SCSI CD-Rom drive

“The mass extinction of UNIX workstations – OSnews”

As a kid i dreamed of ALL THE tech and what could be. New stuff always excited me but these days it's just dire, the only thing in recent years that brought back some joy was #VR and #RISC_V but everything else coming out, I just wonder how big tech will use it to fuck us up even more...
And as kid I would have also never dreamed that things like a 21 years old #HPUX #Unix workstation would help me stay sane and fill me with true wonder instead.

I'm getting pretty close to finishing my first video on the ubiquity of win16 APIs in 90s computing.
The main bit of research that I'm having a little trouble with is the exact pricing for the SDKs for #solaris, #aix, and #hpux from the mid 90s
Does anyone have a link, or receipts, of purchases, catalogues, etc of things like that?

Turns out that #aix is also laffer utilities compatible!
Unlike #solaris and #hpux Wabi didn't quite "just work" and I had to relink it with X11R5 libraries. The README file included with AIX did point me in that direction tho (not about Wabi, that the R5 compat libraries were a thing at all)
Before that it wouldn't really work. I'm sure this knowledge will be super useful to the wider world. 😃

After playing with #solaris #hpux and #aix back to back the last few days I can say, confidently, that AIX is the worst of the three. I'm not quite sure yet if Solaris or HP-UX wins overall.
SAM is really nice tho...

If you were wondering if you could print from a #hpux system running a #windows3 application via Wabi via JetDirect being emulated on an Oki c542 printer.
Yes, yes you can. It all just kind of works without much fuss, except that I had to change the snmp community name for my printer because the old hpux drivers don't seem to like the snmpv2 stuff?
I'm kind of floored this all works.

#HPUX hits end-of-life today, and I’m sad
It’s 31 December 2025 today, the last day of the year, but it also happens to mark the end of support for the last and final version of one of my favourite operating systems: #HP-UX. Today is the day #HPE puts final nail in coffin of their long-running #UNIX operating system, marking end of another vestige of the heyday of the commercial UNIX variants, a reign ended by cheap x86 hardware and the increasing popularisation of #Linux

The last supported version of #HPUX is no more
The final version of #HPE's own flavor of #Unix, HP-UX 11i v3, is now out of support. It is the end of a line that started in 1982.

@osnews HP-UX (some Domain/OS) are what cut my teeth as a sysadmin at #unido (now #tudortmund) in the 90s. It had its quirks but I remember it - and the nice PA-RISC Hardware - fondly. And I remember updating tons of machines because #y2k was about to happen. And I remember #10base2. Cheers to HP-UX!
