I'm surprised there are still people out there having too much free spare time .... Maybe you don't know Sun very much. Sun has a significant history of supporting binaries of already outdated operating system versions, so we can expect our binaries to run on Solaris10. And _if_ we realize that there are users having access to a workstation that is capable of running FlightGear (as the requirements for FlightGear have grown rapidly I assume you need at least an XVR-1000 board), running Solaris10 and having difficulties with our sol8 binaries, then we still can think about putting Solaris10 on someone's machine and build FlightGear there. I think you have forgotten that Solaris10 is not a CDDL-thing only, as with previous releases you can still simply order the install media, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
