Hi List,

I switched back from Debian to Fedora Sparc 12, on my Sunblade 2500 with XVR-100 card.  Everything is working well, except for these issues:

1. firefox gets a "Bus error" whenever I go to yahoo.com or other sites, google.com works fine.  I'm assuming it's any page that has flash or maybe acitve X?

firefox-3.5.9-2.fc12.sparcv9
totem-mozplugin-2.28.6-1.fc12.sparcv9
gnash-plugin-0.8.7-1.fc12.sparcv9

2. I recompiled the rdesktop version 1.71., and it works, but I have to use the "SWCursor" setting in xorg.conf, so my cursor is not a big block.  But, when ever I mouse into the rdesktop window, I get a bunch of horizontal lines that garble the screen?  If I don't use "SWCursor", I get a big block cursor, but no garbled screen.

Thanks again.
