[osol-discuss] snv_66 sparc boot fails
I installed via the network ( who doesn't these days ? ) and upon first
boot I saw the machine hang. I never got to the login prompt or very far
at all actually.
So I turned off the power and decided to boot -srv :

Re: [osol-discuss] Flashplayer 9 Gone from Adobe Site
Solaris version of flashplayer 9 plugin seems to have disappeared from the Adobe d/l site: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html Anyone knows anything about this? Thanks. Near as I can tell Adobe seems to be in a state of war with Solaris users. If I goto http://www.shockwave.com/home.jsp with my browser [ Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS i86pc; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070531 SeaMonkey/1.1.2 ] then I get the usual bunch of alerts and popups that all tell me I need to download a plugin. I note that I can click on some download now button on the site and I am presented with a box that says : Adobe Flash Player Download Center Solaris x86 + a big dumb button that says download now If I click on that button I get the following Sparc software : http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_solaris_sparc.tar.gz Its almost as if someone somewhere just wants Solaris x86 to curl up and die already. Thank you. Be damned if I understand what the issues are. I think the issue is Adobe. Dennis ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Generally configuring ntp in a guest doesn't work well due since ntpd gets confused by the unstable nature of time in a VM (particularly if the host is busy) and gives up. The better solution is to run ntp on the host and configure the guest tools to keep time in sync with the host. Unfortunately guest tools aren't available for Solaris - but that should be getting fixed soon. Is there any VMware-tools for Solaris package which works with Solaris 11/B61 ?

Ah this does sound encouraging. Though it's still confusing why the download page says Solarisx86 and points to a Sparc version. It did at one time point to x86 versions. But maybe this an Adobe web page problem. ---Bob This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Hmmm... On 24/06/07, carlos antonio neira bustos [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: one of the jewels has been stolen ... You can't steal what you freely been given permission to use. Will ZFS be more stable on its native OS or in userland on Linux? It could be stable on both but I suspect a risk averse decision maker would use ZFS on a Solaris and one of the more well-supported filesystems for Linux...
