[SPARCbook] Ultrabook OBP 3.1.8

[Helena Söderholm]

Hello!

Updating the OBP went well (*sigh in relief*).
The old 5G disks do not work anymore it seems. At least it is not possible to boot from them.

I have a few questions still:

1) Does it have to be the exact version of Sol8 (4/01?). I have installed 2/02 and it seems to work fine so far. Is it > 4/01 or exactly that version. Will the patches crash things if I apply them?

2) The WVA software to use is that in the Sol8 for UltrabookIIi? Is this correct or did I misunderstand the README? 

3) Where is the software located to set external screen. The WVA does not seem to contain these functions. Are they command line commands? Is it true 1024x1280 does not work with external display? I have this nice 18" TFT and it wants its native resolution to look its best (1024x1280).

Perhaps these are rtfm questions but it would be nice to hear any experiences out there before I go ahead and break my nice installation. 40G harddrive works fine BTW, oh what a delight with all this space and fresh air for my progs os and apps to breath in!!

Thanks for any input,
Peter
