I'm trying to use the GTK+ L&F with a wifitool Java application I
developed (which needs to evolve towards the new Sun wificonfig, and
then maybe can be given back to Solaris, but that's a different
conversation), and I notice that I get the following errors (I'm using
Xsun with a m64 framebuffer):

/usr/share/nimbus/gtk-2.0/gtkrc: Engine "nimbus" is unsupported, ignoring

I'm no GTK wizard, but it seems like this error is not helpful.

I've also noticed, on the same system, btw, that when the screensaver
activates I get complaints on the console about missing XFree86 misc
Xserver extensions.  (I don't have the precise text handy.)

If Solaris/JDS is going to start making use of XFree86-specific
extensions, then I think it is important to get the support for those
extensions into the Xsun.   Unless Sun is going to claim that supporting
their own hardware isn't "interesting"  (or unless Xsun is going to be
replaced by Xorg sometime before GA -- rumors of the replacement abound,
but I've never heard an actual plan to do it.)

Thanks!
