VideoPix in Solaris 2.5
2007-12-25 11:13:00
] We have a SPARCstation 2 with a VideoPix card that was upgraded from SunOS
] 4.1.x to Solaris 2.5. We were running the VideoPix 1.0 software which
] is about five or six years old now. Is the Sun VideoPix hardware supported
] in Solaris 2.5? What version of the VideoPix software do I need to get
] this thing working again?
Thanks for all the replies, most of which pointed me to:
ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/videopix/
There are a few compressed tar files there:
299943 SUNWvfc.tar.Z
107323 SUNWvpu.tar.Z
19463 SUNWvpx.tar.Z
2264121 VIDEOPIX1.0.tar.Z
SUNWvpu and SUNWvpx are Solaris packages. Untar them and do 'pkgadd -d .'.
The vfc library gets installed under /opt/SUNWits/Graphics-sw/xil/lib.
SUNWvfc contains the vfctool binary and the vfc include files.
VIDEOPIX1.0.tar.Z contains everything: all of the SUN* files above, plus
the SunOS 4.x stuff and Postscript documentation.
