Yesterday I received a reply from Shawn Walker.  Not terribly
informative, but at least it seems as though it is being worked.

http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/pkg-discuss/2009-July/014927.html

A while later, there was a putback to the pkg source code repository
that looks like it may be related.

Re: [osol-discuss] Perhaps this

[William Bauer]

I thought you'd get 1001 opinions on this by now, but I'll give it a shot based 
on my end-user HW experience with OpenSolaris.

OS:  It doesn't take much space, so you could certainly use the same set of 
drives & any mirrors for safety's sake.  I'd even consider the same ZFS pool, 
sharing to clients only your "/data" directory structure or whatever you call 
it.

i7 and new Xeon CPUs have some pretty slick performance and power saving 
features, and OpenSolaris has quite a few optimizations for these Nehalem class 
CPUs.  My office i7 system cooks (i.e. is fast), but my Q6600 quad core at home 
performs exceedingly well, too.

Motherboards are a religious thing with most people.  Personally, I suggest 
sticking with Intel chipsets, preferably X38, X48, or X58.  With that, you 
would get ICHxx SATA controllers (do these two always go hand in hand?).  Pick 
a MB with a BIOS that lets you choose AHCI mode and not just RAID/ATA modes.  
You might have to download the manual to check this out.

I've never used their boards, but I researched the MSI X58 Pro MB this year, 
and everything from the ethernet, to audio, to SATA controllers are supported 
by OpenSolaris.  Also, it has an AHCI setting for the SATA controller, with 7 
internal SATA ports AND 3 x16 PCIe gen2.0 slots!  You don't have to use them 
for video, so a 4+ port PCIe x4 card would fit nicely into one of those.  With 
that, do you need PCI-x?

Those are my opinions.  Melding the OS with the rest is a thinker, but I think 
I'd take advantage of the pool and set some reasonable space limits for the 
data & OS.

Ian, I take it that you only use Solaris 10 and Solaris Express and don't ever 
use Indiana, ipkg zones or IPS package management? The main OpenSolaris IPS 
repository has been going down repeatedly for over two days now. Some people 
who have been running OpenSolaris on their servers have not been able to deploy 
a new ipkg zone in over 48 hours and all their work has been forced to grind to 
a halt.

Nobody who works at Sun has said anything about what might be causing the 
problem. All the people who use ipkg zones on OpenSolaris are basically now 
S.O.L. because every time they try to deploy a new ipkg zone, the new ipkg zone 
automatically tries to download packages from the Sun repository and the 
download times out because the IPS repository is down and consequently the zone 
won't deploy.

Re: [osol-discuss] CAN'T INSTALL A ZONE FOR 2 DAYS

[Anon Y Mous]

I just set up an ipkg zone real quick at 3:00AM this morning and it does seem 
to be working ok although it was going at an astoundingly slow rate:

r...@solarisunix:~# zoneadm -z tempzone install
A ZFS file system has been created for this zone.
Authority: Using http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/.
Image: Preparing at /zone2/tempzone/root ... done.
Cache: Using /var/pkg/download.
Installing: (output follows)
DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB)
SUNWvim 13/55 3941/8019 20.21/72.90

Like I said, it is installing very, very, very 
slowwllly, but that's IPS for ya.

I've been hoping and praying for at least a year now that they'll figure out a 
way to have the global zone automatically be the default IPS package repository 
for the non-global ipkg zones, that way the packages could be installed using 
the gigabit ethernet between zones in Project Crossbow or with a zfs clone of 
the existing packages.

It hasn't happened yet, so I guess we're stuck in the awkward position of 
having to download gigabytes of redundant packages from Sun's network 
repository every time we want to install a new zone when we have already 
downloaded these packages once before and already installed them in the global 
zone. It's such a waste both of my bandwidth and of Sun's bandwidth having to 
download these same packages over and over and over again (not too mention that 
it's a big waste of my time too) when with all these amazing new features like 
Crossbow and ZFS it should be totally unnecessary to do so if the ipkg system 
was designed from the outset to be more scalable and to make a more efficient 
use of bandwidth, time, and other valuable customer resources.

Overall, hosting a large number ipkg zones in their current default installed 
form is very bad news for those of us who have to pay a monthly bill for the 
bandwidth usage on our servers. The current way of having to download 
everything over and over and over again is just not scalable at all :-(

Does anybody here know step by step instructions for how to set up an IPS 
repository in the global zone and then have the non-global zones use it for 
their installation? I think being able to do this would solve at least 80% of 
the problems that OpenSolaris users are having with IPS.

Thanks.

it explains how to install it and set it up. I think the Myk driver is very, VERY old, so I think it uses the older device driver framework and might not work as well with the newer Solaris features (like Crossbow and FMA). 


Try the Yukonx driver first and tell us if it works for you or not. I recommend 
against using the skge and myk drivers for now (myk might be good though if 
you're running a really ancient Solaris like Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 or

[osol-discuss] Audio still skips in 2009.06

[Matthew Stevenson]

Hi,

I can play mp3 audio though Rhythmbox fine, the only problem is that it 
momentarily pauses/skips when I do thinks like moving windows around, 
alt-tabbing between windows, switching tabs in Firefox, clicking the mouse, 
opening a new folder in nautilus. It's a bit irritating! What could be the 
cause of it? It also does this if I use Totem.

My hardware isn't exactly brand new, but it's not bad - 2GHz amd64 CPU with 2GB 
RAM - shouldn't have any problems at all playing music. I've been using 
OpenSolaris for about 6 months, hoping with each /dev release that this issue 
would go away, but it's still there for me in 2009.06 (snv_117).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Matt

Thinking about having the OS on another separate drive, would like to have it 
mirrored but not with hw raid so that I stay free from problems if that 
controller card would fail. I'm looking for ECC support on the motherboard. 
That is, I'm interested in a mobo with at least 6 sata connectors, preferably 
some pci-e connectors for various of cards and one pci-x port. 

Any tip on a motherboard for this? Preferably less then 150 euro/ 210 usd.

I seems quite hard to go throu all mobos searching and searching the hardware 
comparability list. I was dead set on a mobo with 8 working sata connectors 
thought, maybe I should use a sata card for the extra slots for the OS disk?

How would you go about with the OS disk? would you cut out a bit from the 
raidz2 for it or use seperate disks?

Tips and info really appreciated, thanks.

Is is just no sound from just Flash Player or no sound at all?

Start with Preferences -> Audio Control.  Verify the device
is audiohd#0 and the master volume slider is not all the way
down.

How do you provide the repository as a downloadable image?

As far as I know, this will be fixed by providing the repository as a 
downloadable image. But, if you really are running a critical operation, then 
either use SCXE or buy support from Sun in which case you'd use a different 
repository. Remember that OpenSolaris is still very much a work in progress.

Try switching to /dev, it works.

   I'm not having a lot of success googling..  I guess I can try binging...
( is that the term for searching with Bing?).

Any pointers would be appreciated


Gracias..

Oh.  BTW.  I've installed the Codeina MP3 fluendo stuff.  Should I install
the $28 all you need package?  I don't mind paying for it if it's going to
give me what I need.  Plus they need all the support they can get.

Re: [osol-discuss] OS 2009.06 Marvel Yukon NIC issue

[Alex Smith (K4RNT)]

I'm using the YukonX driver from Marvell on my Gateway MA3G notebook -
it has a Marvell Yukon 88E8038 PHY on it, and I tell you it works
*great* on 2009.06. It was in SVR4 package format, and has so far
worked perfectly.

I don't belive the above is accurate. The latest myk driver was released
in March 2009. It supports GLDv3.

I've been running OpenSolaris 111b with that driver on my macbook pro
with no problems. Suspend works fine etc. I haven't played with
crossbow. The myk page explicitly states that the driver was tested with
build 90 of Solaris Express.

Arpunk, if you have a choice, I recommend not using the Myk driver. Use the 
YukonX driver instead. If you read all the way through this blog:

  http://weblogs.java.net/blog/bleonard/archive/2008/05/_opensolaris_20.html

it explains how to install it and set it up. I think the Myk driver is very, 
VERY old, so I think it uses the older device driver framework and might not 
work as well with the newer Solaris features (like Crossbow and FMA). 

Try the Yukonx driver first and tell us if it works for you or not. I recommend 
against using the skge and myk drivers for now (myk might be good though if 
you're running a really ancient Solaris like Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 or 
unpatched Solaris 10 though).
