HI All,
I've recently installed opensolaris
"Solaris Express Developer Edition 9/07 snv_70b X86".
The installer is really nice, and nwam made the installation
and immediate use of the OS very easy and fun.
My company is very pro Linux and has deployed several
redhat enterprise installations, and is considering moving
to CentOS.
After showing OpenSolaris to them, they are now
considering moving everything to Solaris.
However, due to my lack of expertise, i've stumbled over
some minor problems that is very bothersome and is distracting
me from moving ahead faster, please help.
---------
After sometime though, I started noticing that:
a. at times, the screen for my laptop will go
black, and I cannot get solaris back.
is this due to some power management
feature? where can i find out more about
this ? can it be turned off ?
b. on my laptop, there are 2 network interfaces,
rtls0 and ath0.
rtls0: flags=201000802<BROADCAST,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 6
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0
ether 0:16:d4:15:7f:71
ath0: flags=201004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500
index 7
inet 192.168.1.100 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
ether 0:16:cf:b:54:d6
i did not change the order in /etc/nwam/lpp, although i
tend to use the wireless interface more often.
sometimes, my network connection appears to
have gone away. firefox stopped working, and
ping complained that www.yahoo.com is unknown.
if i ping my dns server using its IP address, ping
reports that the dns server is alive.
this suggests that the network connection is still
present, but somehow the resolver on the laptop
stopped working ?
how can i find out what is wrong ? (or better yet,
does somebody already know what is wrong) ?
I cannot be sure if the above happens only after
the "black screen of death" :-) as described above.
3. I want to install netbeans 6.0 beta, but am running
out of space, and I'm hoping to be able to uninstall
netbeans 5,5,1 and any components within it that
can be found in netbeans 6.0.
the documentation on the net says to run
/opt/netbeans-5.5.1/cnd1/_uninst/uninstaller.
After displaying that it is verifying JVM on the screen,
the script hanged.
ptree(1) shows that the script has invoked
/usr/bin/java -cp :::::/net/guild/export/DO/common/.....
Since the /net/guild was looking for uninstall.jar
in /opt/netbeans-5.5.1/cnd1/_uninst , i removed the
/net/guild/* path components in it.
Now the script has returns to the shell prompt,
after displaying that it is verifying the VMs.

Please cc me in your replies, as I am not yet on the
mailing list.
Thanks in advance for helping,
cheers,
sam
