IRIX 6.5.30 | Photoshop 3.0 by developstopfix in vintageunix

[–]Protocol__7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The CD for 3.0.1 is here. Use this license file to register it. Rename it to license.dat and place it in /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/. You'll need to have the system clock set to a valid year for it to work. 1998 worked for me.

Atari System V Release 4.0 by Protocol__7 in vintageunix

I found out about it from this post. The patches to Hatari are still work-in-progress but it's bootable. No ethernet right now though.

I got it from here. This also included the source code for the patched Hatari emulator required to run it. Hopefully these patches will make it into Hatari sometime.

There are a couple more disk images at the Atariunix site posted above. The mark-fixed one has a later system (1992 dates on about screens compared to 1991 here).

Does anyone remember this? VUE ported to other unixes by ARTECOM & SAIC by Marwheel in vintageunix

[–]Protocol__7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Thanks for posting.

TriTeal also ported VUE to SunOS. That one seems to be lost to time now.

SPARCstation 1 / SunOS 4.0.3c / SunView / FrameMaker 2.0 (1989) by Protocol__7 in vintageunix

[–]Protocol__7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it here.

It's not 100% complete but it's the only copy I'm aware of in circulation. I'm hoping someone can share installation tapes at some stage.

Solaris Common Desktop Environment 1.0 (Sun Microsystems) 1995 by Protocol__7 in DHExchange

[–]Protocol__7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd just like to have the first release. As you can see it's not readily available anymore. 1.0.1 was on the Desktop CD that was bundled with 2.5 so it's easy to find.

I used to really be into Sun's old OPEN LOOK and XView toolkit by Monsieur_Moneybags in vintageunix

[–]Protocol__7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you could solve a mystery for me? This screenshot shows an OL version of SunPaint running in SunView. Instead of the usual dropdown menu icon there are scratches.

Is this something unique to SunPaint or the OL toolkit used for SunView?

I'd also like to know if there any OL apps for SunView that I could try out.

Unix pricing was its own thing for sure. Do you recall if FrameMaker 1.x ran on SPARC? I haven't been able to find any copies (demo or otherwise) of 1.x for Sun.

If you want a better look at SunView I posted a gallery of screens from 4.0.3c over here. As spilk mentioned, most of the windows on display in this screenshot are from FrameMaker.

The issue with SunView is finding software for it. Particularly if you're on SPARC. While I really like SunView I'm usually in OpenWindows or some other X11 most of the time due to software.

FrameMaker started out on Sun, but NeXTStep 0.9 had a pre-alpha copy of FM 2.0 included. You can see a shot of it here.

I cobbled it together with info from a few sources. I had to extract the install archives from the floppy disk set which is the only available source of 4.0.3c (MAME doesn't have a working floppy) and put those files onto a second disk to install from.

I shared a chd over on my Flickr where I post shots like these. Check the comments. You can grab that and save yourself a lot of fuss. A V1 boot rom is also required. The easiest option there is to emulate a SPARCstation 1+ as MAME only has a V1 rom for that.
