I really honestly can't figure out what you expected.

You do this thing, you do it out of passion for Solaris, passion for 
technology. Someday, something might come out of it, depending on many 
different things.

In the meanwhile, like you noted, you have to eat, have somewhere to sleep, pay 
the bills. That's the "red pill". So, you'll need a steady paying job by day, 
and you'll have to sacrifice your free time by night. That's the curse of the 
passion for technology. And, for what it's worth, you won't be alone in that. I 
put 14-16 hours a day in on a regular basis, every day, seven days a week.

Shouldn't you be able to monetize MartUX immediately by putting on your CV that 
you created your own *Solaris* distribution?

I could imagine an OpenSolaris developer like you being a better candidate than 
most candidates out there wyying for a job.
