  6. 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

  14. I love obscure ISA's and while I still hunt for a sane priced #SPARC machine, my HP c8000 #HPUX #PARISC #Unix workstation will keep me sane and busy, not sure how much I will get from this book but it's to much fun.

  15. 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.

  20. 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?

  21. Finally got a memory upgrade for my #hp #b2000 #hpux machine. I'll be rocking 2 whole gigabibbles.

    Is HP shipping out memory modules or dinner plates?!

  26. And here we go, a true #Unix machine with two #PARISC CPU's, OS is HP UX and one the last #RISC workstation #HP released, while switching to Intels ultimate lemon Itanium, should have stayed with their own silicon. This will be fun to figure out.

  27. If you've been following my latest #unix shenanigans you might have noticed that I've talked about #solaris, #aix, and #hpux but what about #irix ?!

    Well today it is #sgi day. Irix is the only proprietary Unix I've ever actually used day to day, I'm wondering how familiar it'll be once installed.

  28. I don't want special files for pseudo driver "sad" #hpux I'm good.

  29. 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. 😃

  30. 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...

  31. 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.

  41. If you ever wondered if it is possible to boot a #hpux #b2000 #parisc system from an #ide drive:

    No no you can't. It seems like it can for an annoyingly long time, but no, only from an IDE CDROM drive, and only only if it set to master on the bus.
