Ditto. Even the mouse is busted (keeps scrolling down)--when I was able to boot at all. The problems of build 107 are so numerous and so severe, there is very little we non-developers can do. As I mentioned several times in separate threads, I have downloaded and installed every SXCE (or equivalent) build since nv20, and this one is exceptionally bad. I have filed bug 6770 re being enable to boot in VB, but I am going to make an exception and will not file any more bugs. Because it takes very little effort to do an image-update to build 107 under the IPS, or install from the ISO image under VB, I appreciate the fact that this build is made available for us to have a glimpse. But debugging can only be based on a build of better quality. As I understand it, for obvious reasons, build 107 is being skipped in the SXCE DVD series. Again, I appreciate the fact that it is made available in IPS, at least we are able to report the booting and some other related problems (also kudos to VirtualBox). But it is very DANGEROUS to assume that these are the only problems. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
