Anyone Running Vintage UNIXen?

Like SunOS, AT&T Unix or anything else of that era... anything running MGR as a graphics subsystem? I'd enjoy hearing from people that may have used MGR back in the day.

I have something of a collection of 32bit Suns sun4c, sun4m, sun4d etc..nothing bigger than an 8 way 85Mhz SS1000E though. The 2 most interesting ones being be Sparcplug and SS1000E I guess sort of opposite ends of the spectrum.

I also have an AT&T Unix PC I am looking to load more software on as well as potentially modify for using a larger disk.

I think the only other box I have of this era is an SE/30 which I hope to have A/UX running on at some point.

Also would be interested in getting an Axil S/420 or Hyperstation 30, and a Fujitsu AG-10E... I know its a long shot but I may as well ask!

		       |		|should replace the radix character

       If the locale's values for p_cs_precedes and n_cs_precedes do not match, the value of nl_langinfo(CRNCYSTR) is unspecified.

       The <langinfo.h> header declares the following as a function:

	 char *nl_langinfo(nl_item);

       Inclusion of <langinfo.h> header may also make visible all symbols from <nl_types.h>.

USAGE

       Wherever possible, users are advised to use functions compatible with those in the ISO C standard to access items of langinfo data. In par-
       ticular, the strftime(3C) function should be used to access date and time information defined in category LC_TIME. The localeconv(3C) func-
       tion should be used to access information corresponding to RADIXCHAR, THOUSEP, and CRNCYSTR.
