Hi James, I was so eager to try out FF3.00 but ....
I have seen JDS being stuck were it is for very long time ... I run stock Sol10 on AMD64 h/w (Ultra 20M2 workstation) at work and I don't think I would be installing opensolaris any time soon. So I will either have to build FF3.0 or I guess wait until Solaris 10 upgrades its own libraries ? Is the latter one a reasonable expectation? thanks for the reply Michael On Wed, 18 Jun 2008, James Cornell wrote: | Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:51:01 -0500 | From: James Cornell <sparcdr at gmail.com> | To: Michael E.
