Check the output of svcs -xv (possibly /usr/sbin/svcs -xv if it's not
in your PATH). The first service listed is the failed one, and will
have a log file.

shutdown does not accept an -r option, try 'init 6'.

Directly updating from 2009.06 is not supported. The publisher
configuration should match the global zone's (opensolaris.org must be
non-sticky), see the
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Installing+or+Upgrading which also has
debugging info.

If you want to get completely rid of bitmaps font in applications
that use fontconfig you can either enable
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf (which is what Ubuntu
does) or put its contents in your ${HOME}/.fonts.conf. For
details see fonts.conf(5)


Hi All,

The workaround in comment 13 here did the trick:

https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=4605#c13

alanc also helpfully provided the following info:

http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=136192&tstart=0

As I understand it, the Opensolaris Extras repository is now closed to new 
users, so I wonder if the above workaround or something similar would be a 
useful thing to do to ensure a good-looking browsing experience out of the box?

Cheers,
Dave

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] libfmevent problem with installing oi_147

2010-12-20 Thread Andrew Myers
Thanks to Apostolos for the suggestion of installing snv_134.  Maybe
there's more going on here than I realised, as this doesn't work for
me either.

The first message I see is a warning:

/p...@0,0/pci1028,2...@1a,2 (uhci2): Connecting device on port 2 failed

Then it says "Console login services cannot run".  It then goes to
system maintenance mode, and I can log in as root / jack, however I
don't know what to do after that :-).  I did note that some of the
commands I tried, such as "shutdown -r now" didn't work - not sure if
these are invalid commands or whether something still hasn't become
available that should be.

I'm happy to keep testing this if it's something that could be helpful
to others but if not then I might just have to play with open indiana
on my other machine instead...

I have created an issue in the Opensolaris bug tracker and I've
updated the Illumos ticket with the URL. Hopefully they will fix it,
if not I'd be glad to hack together a patch that makes this not happen
in OI. I'm no python guru but this should be a pretty easy fix :)

That would not hold true if the connection is to console mode would
it?  I mean the oi install is not running an X desktop.

When I login from a linux desktop running X, my TERM becomes `xterm'.

When I login from a windows machine using putty, my TERM becomes
`xterm'.

When I login at the oi console my TERM becomes `sun-color'

I don't think gnome-terminal comes into play ...

I've already described the difference in behavior when LANG is set
differently.

Briefly:

  In order to see man pages without odd characters in them when man is
  called in the normal way ( man ls) I find it necessary to set the
  LANG variable to en_US.ISO8859-1

As to different behaviors according to LANG setting:

LANG set to en_US.UTF-8

   Calling man normally (man ls) reveals unusual char in the pages
   makeing it difficult to read them.

   There is no error when calling `man /bin/ls', however the manpage
   revealed has unusual characters in it:

  man /bin/ls

   Now man pages called with the normal `ls man' are clean and
   readable, however calling `man /bin/ls' now provokes the error, and
   the page displayed if I answer `y' is even harder to read and seems
   to contain a different sort of mess ... looks like escape sequences

Thanks for investigating this, time-slider is still developed in
the open by Oracle, see
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/jds/time-slider/
We currently ship the latest version so this has not been fixed
upstream.
So I figure in this case it would make sense to raise this issue
upstream with the information you already provided at the OI
tracker. If they do not fix it in a reasonable timeframe we'll
have to come up with a fix on our own.
Would you mind filing a bug at http://defect.opensolaris.org/ and
linking to it from the OI bug afterwards?
TIA,

To reply to myself - I believe I've identified a bug in the
time-slider code and I've added what I think is happening to that
ticket. I don't know whether time-slider has a maintainer, but
hopefully I've provided enough information to fix the bug. It's

No, you have to use a repository to update.

At least the installer is not capable of handling this. Why do
you want to do that anyway?

We are still far away from a stable release and have not decided
how to handle updates, I suppose a separate /stable or /release
repo recieving updates would do.

Since I am not working in this area I leave that for others to
comment on. One major issue with the transition to Illumos is
that we need to get the adapt the G11n to Illumos, so far it is
quite broken and does not even build on OpenSolaris/current
OpenIndiana.

Please report a bug to

details (exact hardware, logs etc.)

There is a fix for the version detection in the VirtualBox repo,
see
http://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/33039 You could apply this to
the postinstall script before installing the package.

> Also How to update FF/TB, etc, before new /dev OI release?

You could try installing the contributed builds listed on
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+desktop/development
Please note that we do not support this, any issues should be
reported to desktop-disc...@opensolaris.org

What do you mean by that?

The next dev release will have Oracle ON replaced with Illumos,
it will be released when it's ready.

I had observed the same problem in two machines while other
identical machines had no problem with the same media. At any rate,
I had to install snv_134 and then to upgrade...

as I understand GPT, you can't - it's the description of how the disk
is partitioned ("divvied up"), and is quite different from the
traditional "MBR"-style partition table. changing this type will lose
all data on the disk.

2010-12-20 Thread Andrew Myers
Sorry to jump in late on this thread, but I'm seeing the error
described by Kostas
Oikonomou on my Dell e6400.  (original post here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org/msg01290.html
)

I am observing this on both 147 and 148.  The exact same DVD's boot fine on
an old IBM ThinkPad R40 which I have, so I do not believe the media to be
the problem.

Is there anything else I can try to assist with debugging this?

Many thanks,

This indicates an attempt to report an error to FMA early in boot, but
there is a bug (probably  http://www.illumos.org/issues/562 ) which
prevents FMA from working a this stage so you don't get the actual
