Hi all,

I performed an image-update of a system I had at home following the /release of 2008.11 to the current /dev so I could test things (file issues if needed) and then go back to /release once 2009.06 comes out.

1) Grub seems broken after the update. The system boots to a "grub>" prompt. Feeding it the equivalent of what is in the menu.lst it will boot, but after that boot invoking installgrub did not help with subsequent reboots. The menu.lst is correct. The most recent thing I've tried is doing a beadm activate old/new... we'll see if that fixes it. This is somewhat concerning to me, as it would leave a lot of users stuck.

2) New Intel graphics drivers seem faster... especially with 3D... but after the driver puts the monitor in low power mode, it never comes back to life. Even an svcadm restart gdm won't kill the old X... it seems to try to start another X and fails not finding an adapter. The only way out I've found (from ssh) is to kill (SIGKILL) X, then restart gdm. SIGHUP and SIGTERM don't do anything to Xorg when in this state.

3) Something changed with pkg:/SUNWgnu-libiconv. I verified my old boot environment has the files in the package, but I can't make sense of why they're all gone in the new one:

I searched for existing bugs with libiconv (in both bugzilla and bugster), but don't see anything. I also didn't see anything in flag days, but I suspect this package doesn't come from ONNV, so I'm not sure where to look.

SUNWgnu-libiconv was a temporary package before it was properly integrated, so it is now empty:

http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev/manifest/0/SUNWgnu-libiconv%400.5.11%2C5.11-0.111%3A20090418T191123Z

It is empty because we currently don't have a good way to deal with package obsoletion or removal.

Cheers,
