[OpenIndiana-discuss] VirtualBox and USB passthrough
Have you ever seen VirtualBox USB passthough working on illumos or Solaris (be it with our or Oracle VirtualBox binaries)? We have this ticket https://www.illumos.org/issues/10855 rightfully noting that USB passthrough does not work (in my note there are more debugging information). Before I start to looking into this, I was just wondering if it ever worked...

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Repo for OI packages
Thanks for that info, Till. I had anther close look at the CSW page and although there were some initial issues, it was easy enough to set up, and had a wider range of applications than the installed repo. Regards, Chris.

I have started it with swap size = double of RAM (16GB), but... Now, my memory:swap ratio is 1:3 and tabs appeared back. Will keep testing... For those interested in further details on illumos memory model, see https://echelog.com/logs/browse/oi-dev/1555711200. I work on next Firefox ESR and with Firefox 66 I am in the process of adding another 8G of swap, so, I will be on 16:32 ratio...

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] VirtualBox 6.0.6 with VNC extension pack, web service
Hi Michal Yes the original definition by sun states that no scripting shall taker place during Installation. It is the Job of the SOftware to work on a newly installed system without adaptations by the Packager. THat said SMF services have always been considered as part of the software and can be triggered by package installations with the service action. So yes you can make an SMF service that handles the post install actions. Hope this helps Greetings Till On 30.04.19 16:32, Michal Nowak wrote: > On 4/30/19 9:06 AM, Predrag Zečević - Technical Support Analyst wrote: >> >> On 04/29/19 20:26, Tim Mooney wrote: >>> In regard to: [OpenIndiana-discuss] VirtualBox 6.0.6 with VNC extension...: >>> >>> VirtualBox 6.0.6 is now available in the hipster repository.

Yes, to be on the safe side, one should always run the command with virtualbox update, however, the rate of changes to VNC is minimal, so, practically, it's quite safe to do it only for major version changes. I thought about doing it after installation, but as far as I know, we don't have scripting hooks in IPS, so, one off SMF service seems to be the right approach?
