[osol-discuss] sxcr 43 (cd) install problem - anyone else ?

2006-07-26 Thread Peter Lees
hi folks,

just downloaded  made CD's of SXCR build 43  am trying to install on an IBM 
thinkpad.

i get as far as determining system identity and it hangs - trying to create a 
console window to see what's going on yields a 'pty not found' error.

i can interrupt (^C) in the system indentity to get the console/terminal 
windows to give me a prompt, but all i can really do is reboot.

build 33 appears to work OK on the same hardware.

anyone else seen this with a fresh install of SXCR 43 (on x86 or not) and/or 
can suggest tips i can try?

tia

[osol-discuss] problem with Installing web browser opera 9

2006-07-26 Thread Teng
Hi all,

I just try to install web browser opera9 on my IBM laptop R52. The software be 
installed without any error, but when I try to run it, /usr/local/bin/opera

It tells me: 
-
Xlib: connection to :0.0 refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
-

Its looks like some problem with the X server?
My OS is : Solaris 10 X86 fresh, Sun java desktop system for solaris.

The default web browser which come with Solaris10 works well.

Thank you in advanced.

Cheers,

[osol-discuss] Formal Proposal : Port OpenSolaris to PowerPC

   Formal Proposal : Port OpenSolaris to PowerPC


This is a project that is already underway but no formal proposal had
been  written or posted  to OpenSolaris.org.  It seems reasonable at this
time to make the proposal.

I propose that a project be formed to port OpenSolaris to the PowerPC
and POWER Architecture.  The initial  port should  be tightly constrained
to a specific  hardware reference  platform and  based on a 32-bit single
CPU implementation.  Members of the Solaris community have already formed
together in order  to achieve  this and  we have  selected the Genesi ODW
Workstation as  the  hardware platform  for a number of  reasons.  Much
discussion was  held and  the decision stands  within the community.

Genesi has provided numerous units to facilitate the port work and Genesi
staff work closely with the community in both the Solaris world and Linux.

More information about Genesi may be seen at :

  http://www.genesippc.com/

The initial PowerPC hardware platform may be seen at :

  https://www.pegasosppc.com/special_odw.php?partner=blastware

Code for the port was initially from the OpenSolaris project but Tom
Riddle at Sun Labs has managed to gain access to the Solaris 2.5.1 port.
Please see more info at :

  http://research.sun.com/spotlight/2006/2006-06-14-SolarisPPC.html

The result of many weeks of work at Sun Labs is the initial stand
alone PowerPC binary that may be seen booting on the Genesi ODW at :

  http://www.blastwave.org/articles/BLS-0055/index.html

The initial GRUB2 bootloader may be found at :

  http://www.blastware.org/grub2/index.html

The code ( pending ) and tasks may be found at :

  http://polaris.blastwave.org/

The community has accepted the name Polaris as the distro name.

The last piece missing is this formal proposal for the port of OpenSolaris
to the PowerPC architecture.

+1, although note that there is already a PowerPC community.  I think it
would be best to rename the latter to Ports or somthing similar, and then
have this proposed project housed within it.  (One of the things we're going

[osol-discuss] upcoming source and binary distributions

2006-07-26 Thread Karyn Ritter

I'm sorry I haven't sent a weekly update about source and binary
deliveries for several weeks. I know everything has been going smoothly,
so I hope there weren't any problems due to my lack of status.

I don't expect any delays in the upcoming onnv source and SXCR
deliveries next week and Friday respectively.

However, yesterday Pete Dennis integrated the compiler switch changes,
so next week's onnv source delivery requires Studio 11 (+ patches) to
build. We'll definitely have the compilers and appropriate patches for
you all to build with, but we *may* not have everything that is
available for Studio 10 by the time the build comes out on Tuesday (8/1).

Hopefully everything will be there. Steve will include the flag day
details with his announcement, so you don't have to remember all of this.

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that we are going through this
compiler transition, and that there may be some things missing. Luckily
yesterday's delivery will still be available (as will the Studio 10
tools) so there are some options if your preferred delivery mechanism
for the tools isn't available on 8/1.

Apologies for any inconvenience.

- Karyn

  At this point I do not see a need to do anything at all other than focus
on the real work in the code.  Whatever is on the OpenSolaris.org site is
really just a placeholder or an information page.  It may be reasonable for
admin purposes ( or just common sense ) to create a ports section on the
OpenSolaris site but at the moment there are no other ports.  Unless we see
a port to either x86 or Sparc as a port when they already exist in both
the Solaris commercial distribution. Are Belenix, SchilliX, MarTux et al
seen as ports?   I don't really know.

Re: [osol-discuss] Formal Proposal : Port OpenSolaris to PowerPC

2006-07-26 Thread Dennis Clarke

 So development would continue to happen on Blastwave?

   Yes.  There is a project well in place and already happening.

   Also, Genesi has stepped up to the plate and provided _everything_ that
the community would ever need to ensure that we have good success.  In that
regard it makes total sense to work with our Genesi sponsor and partner as
well as the great guys at Sun Labs.  We have all been working together and
in communication for nearly a year now.  Its a pretty cool team really.

 If so, what (if anything) will be in the project on opensolaris.org?

   From a procedural standpoint we do have some level of hierarchy within
the community and the formal proposal was a formality that needed to be
done.  It was long overdue.  Nothing needs to change at OpenSolaris.org
and work will continue as usual.

 The community has accepted the name Polaris as the distro name.

  Cool.  But I need to ask a question:  is someone likely to need or
  want to trademark this use of Polaris?  (If so, it's not useful as a
  project name for opensolaris.org; although admittedly much blander, I
  suggest ppc-dev.)

[osol-discuss] OS.org System Changes Have Been Completed

2006-07-26 Thread Derek Cicero

All,

The system downtime has ended.

Since we made DNS changes to our network, a few users may have trouble 
editing content for the remainder of the day, as you will be accessing 
the old servers. If you are still having trouble saving changes on the 
site by tomorrow morning at 9 AM, please let me know via the 
website-discuss list.


Thanks,
Derek

[osol-discuss] Re: Gaim busted?

2006-07-26 Thread Peter Lees
   Hummm ... one guess is that gaim uses dirname to
   locate it's plugins directory.
   So it'd strip the executable name and bin
prefix. /usr/bin/gaim 
  
  ln -s /usr/lib/gaim /lib/gaim solved this issue.
  
 
  As in:
 ttp://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug
 _id=6333181
 fixed in build 43.
 
 ---Bob



... still see this in my just-installed SXCE build 43

Re: [osol-discuss] Initial Sol 10 SPARC Stick Mounting for FAT Cruzer USB

2006-07-26 Thread Artem Kachitchkine



Several days of web search, both on Google and OpenSolaris and I have learned 
NOTHING


So I presume this didn't help?

Re: [osol-discuss] problem with Installing web browser opera 9

Hi all,

I just try to install web browser opera9 on my IBM laptop R52. The software be 
installed without any error, but when I try to run it, /usr/local/bin/opera

It tells me: 
-

Xlib: connection to :0.0 refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
-

Its looks like some problem with the X server?
My OS is : Solaris 10 X86 fresh, Sun java desktop system for solaris.

The default web browser which come with Solaris10 works well.

Thank you in advanced.

Cheers,
Teng
 
  
Way in the past I've had this problem.  I believe it had something to do 
with one of these three files.


.TTauthority
.Xauthority
.ICEauthority

The way I found was researching the error messages in:

/usr/HOME/.dt/errorlog
/usr/HOME/.dt/startlog

[osol-discuss] Teamware release?

2006-07-26 Thread Ian Collins
I tried this on tools-discuss but didn't get an answer, so I'll try again here:

Are we going to see Teamware released to open source? 

I was told it was almost ready a year or so back.
