Hi there to all, dear friends!
I`m new to OpenSolaris, and in the last 2 years I left Windows and tried
several Linux distributions. At the moment I`m using openSUSE 11.3 and I love
it, but... something`s missing... I didn`t found the perfect OS... yet...
Came to know about OpenSolaris... I installed it, but everything seems to be
hard... the sound does not work.. cannot find any new updates... I used
OpenSolaris 2009.06
But the reason I`m opening this thread is to ask which are the reasons for
using OpenSolaris, and what OpenSolaris offers for a everyday desktop user that
Linux or Windows does not offer... I enjoy OpenSolaris... but everything seems
to be so difficult for me to do (install programs for example). I really want
to know all the benefits it is offering, and if there is a reason to pass all
this difficulties...
Please give me some reason, and I`ll use OpenSolaris, I`ll learn how works and
I`ll spread the word about it here in my country.
Thank you so so much!!! Greatly appreciate it!
dtrace, zfs, et al are really the only good reasons to use opensolaris,
but as far as desktop OSs go, it sucks. rocks for a workstation or
server, but it's nowhere near ready for the desktop.
