[osol-discuss] WHY? Oh God oh, why do they make it so hard to find the download page?

I don't know if I'm in the right place to post this but I need to vent! Every time I look for Solaris Enterprise, Nevada, SunOS 5.11, whatever, the list of downloadable stuff only lists Solaris 10 (x86 of course although I do have a Sparc Ultra 5). I eventually stumbled upon it and downloaded

I think that in future best way is to integrate KDE as default graphical desktop in Solaris. GNOME can be as an alternative desktop. KDE is more better than GNOME. I think that JDS can be changed with JDE (KDE based Java Desktop Environment). There is need to talk about KDE because I think that

True, we had a duplex mismatch on some fiber equipment here that took us about a week to find. The only symptom was large data transfers would eventually fail if the link was saturated. I'm not certain that it's applicable with Solaris 10, but with certain ethernet switches (Cisco in

2005-12-27 Thread Richard L. Hamilton
No, that's tun(7m), which is different. If you had installed what you're thinking of (which doesn't come with Solaris), it would be in places like (on SPARC) /usr/kernel/drv/sparcv9/tun /usr/kernel/drv/tun /usr/kernel/drv/tun.conf But last I looked, the build wasn't set up to support amd64

[osol-discuss] Solaris Express (B28) net install/boot problem

I'm trying to install Solaris Express B28 from over the net onto an old Dell Dimension XPS D333 (333MHz Pentium-II, 512MB RAM) however it always fails while loading the kernel with: panic: unexpected trap in boot loader (+ a lot of hexadecimal stuff that I don't feel like typing in manually

Hello, I don't want to say GNOME is bad but KDE looks in design better. I am CDE fun too and I want that CDE will be in future supported. In my means there is future for GNOME, KDE, and CDE. But in Solaris better is to use original OpenGroup CDE. It has excellent future Dtinfo. This message
