b107 had the US keyboard issue, with workaround, but became unusably

b108 had this, plus after running `ssh -X machine xterm', the resulting
xterm died at the first keypress.
b109 I don't know yet: I couldn't get a network connection:
start_dhcp: unable to start /sbin/dhcpagent
Trussing `ifconfig nge0 dhcp' showed either write(<socket>) ... EPIPE or
read(<socket>) ECONNRESET.
Trussing dhcpagent revealed it logging:
dhcpagent: ... accept_event: accept on ipc socket: Invalid argument.
I'll go back in to 109 and hardwire an IP address, and see how it goes.
I have seen this. It seems to be caused by my modification of
/etc/inet/sock2path based on the workaround in
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6799655. If you have
applied this work around, try backing it out and rebooting. It should fix
the problem that dhcp is complaining about. I've notified Anders, the
responsible engineer for the bug.
Unfortunately, backing out the work around exposes the NTP bug 6796948.
According to the bug report, the NTP bug should be fixed in snv_110.
Thanks for that. I had indeed made this modification, but I can't
really back it out, since I need NTP. Having rebooted back into b109
and hardwired the IP address, I can say that the good news is
1) it recognizes my keyboard
2) I can detach attachments within thunderbird without the machine
grinding to a halt
Yey.
Sadly,
ssh -X machine xterm
still dies on the first keystroke, which is a right pain for me. I'll
have to see how I get on with local terminals and `ssh -x machine'.
Cheers,
Rob
