Yea, I have seen that...but I would have to install that after having had gnome installed from the installer. Again, we need more flexibility up front during the initial installation so that we can meet our objectives without having to hack and re-engineer the original install. Surly there are some Sun fans who would rather start with a small base and choices that suite their needs and roll their own afterwards. If Sun is really serious about being open sourced and pushing into that niche, rich community then they are going to have to put the power in the users hands such as that of debian, gentoo, freebsd etc.. instead of making choices for us. The latter is why the open source community exists today because people got tired of corporations making fundamental decisions for us. Like Microsoft, you cant choose to have IE not be installed if you know that you will be using Firefox or maybe opera.
Thanks for your time Tunla, I look forward to learning and playing with Solaris. Also is compiz fusion + xfce with nvidia run decent on opensolaris. I want to try and get the same desktop that I have on my Gentoo setup with opensolaris. Is there any specific book you would recommend for learning solaris/opensolaris so that I can support it in a data center environment in the future? Again, thanks bud for your time and have a great evening. This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
