Roberto has clearly stated in his own forum that the dependencies can be satisfied with installation of required Blastwave.org packages. Please excuse me for my ignorance, but wouldn't this dispose of the need for "integration"? I have found the NX/FreeNX server to be an excellent tool to encourage Windows users to try our SuSE desktop box and offer their opinions. I am very excited to learn that it also works in Solaris (& that it could be run at almost native speed). The Solaris port of FreeNX also has a very unique utility: to entice many of Sun's employees to more seriously (& effortlessly) look at Solaris/OpenSolaris. I am really sick and tired of hearing so many of Sun's own employees talk so passionately about their Mac notebooks, and so few are talking about Solaris/OpenSolaris, the OS that we outsiders have felt so passionate about. Perhaps they can try logging into a FreeNX/Solaris server first, then run a VirtualBox VM on their Windows or Mac machines. Finally they can collect enough confidence/courage to install and run on the bare metal.
