Yes - other than the Japanese layout, all the layouts should be the same in Type 7 as they were in Type 6. (I actually have a German pre-production Type 7 as the representative European layout I was sent for internal alpha testing. I can vouch it has Stop/Eigenshaften/ Kopieren/Einsetzen/Ausschnieden/Vordergrund/...) If the keyboard really has Ausschnieden, you should try to fix this ;-) Jörg -- EMail:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (home) Jörg Schilling D-13353 Berlin [EMAIL PROTECTED](uni) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (work) Blog: http://schily.blogspot.com/ URL: http://cdrecord.berlios.de/old/private/ ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/schily ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
[osol-discuss] Get Involved!
We just started the content project and I would really encourage people to get involved with this. I know that there are a lot of projects here but I really feel that getting information out to people is vital to the future success of OpenSolaris. I think the world as a whole isn't really getting what's really going on here. For example, just last Information Week just had one of those is Unix dead articles. When I see all of the innovation going on here the real question should be are all the other OS's dead? I would argue that Solaris has more innovations recently than any OS has seen in the past twenty years and Solaris has got to be the best professional grade OS out there now. Also the fact that this has become open source is pretty amazing. It has become obvious that this is not just another marketing gimmick from Sun. This has never been done before. There is a really a revolution going on here and it is almost like it is some kind of secret. So if you feel like me, let's do something about it. What needs to be done is to educate people. Once they use OpenSolaris and understand it they'll be hooked. After all I am not a Sun employee or their shill. I am just someone truly excited about what is being done here. I am a Java Developer and I have not been this excited about an OS since I moved from DOS to OS/2. The Content Project I see is one of the best ways we can get people to get into OpenSolaris.Solaris has always had a steep learning curve and we can work on that. Educating new people is something anybody who cares about OpenSolaris can and should get involved with. If you agree the head over to the content project and help. The obvious thing is that we need people to write content. It isn't that hard and is a great way to get recognized. We also need reviewers, maybe you don't have the time or skills yet but your sure will have something to offer by helping the authors with your comments. Again it isn't hard and gets yourself recognized. So who's with me? Bill rushmores.net ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] X4200 + build 28/30?

The problem was definately with builds 28 and 30 of Nevada; S10 U1 has finished installing, with no problems. Whew--I was starting to think that I had a rather expensive (not to mention, noisy) brick! Guess I'll have to wait until at least build 31 before I can play with ZFS on this puppy... I've just (net)installed build 32 on our new one here and that seems to work just fine; running the JavaRConsole over the VPN to install it was rather cumbersome (the connection appeared to drop all the time) Casper ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
[osol-discuss] 20060201 question
Hello all, I like the look of the website with its ON Consolidation now in the download section, but in the current README (http://dlc.sun.com/osol/on/downloads/current/README.opensolaris) and the referred-to page of currently known issues (http://opensolaris.org/os/community/onnv/known_issues/), the text states: - The current minimum SXCR build needed to build the OpenSolaris sources is Nevada build 32. - I have not tried a full build of 20060201 yet (or even BFU'd from the archives), but cannot see that SXCR b32 is available yet on the SDLC. I guess that its just a typo in the README? So what build is 20060201? b31 I guess... Apols if I missed an email covering all this. Thanks and regards... Sean.
