[osol-discuss] b122 How to enable Dual Screen - need to increase virtual desktop size?
I have installed OpenSolaris build 122, I have two screens attached to my desktop machine. At present the screens are mirrored - instead I would like them to be one desktop from left to right, split across the two screens. If I use the System - Preferences - Display application to uncheck Mirror Screens then I get this error - Could not apply the selected configuration required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(2560, 1024), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1280, 1280) Any ideas how I can change the maximum virtual size setting? The option doesnt seem to be in the app! Thanks Adam. -- Adam Retter skype :adam.retter http://www.adamretter.org.uk ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

How can I delete files recursively in all subdirectories with .java extension?

Make sure you put quotes around the pattern you are searching, so that
the shell doesn't accidently expand wildcards with files found in the
current directory.
xargs isn't safe for filenames with whitespace characters in it.
You probably also don't want to delete directories, just plain files.

So let me see if I have this correct. Since I'm using Cups, as supplied, I do not need to use printer discovery, turn it off. Cups enabled = Printer (Device) Discovery disabled. Correct? The short version is yes. The printer discovery support under hal provides async printer discovery. The USB printer discovery comes from the kernel via sysevents that translate into hal device tree add/remove events and the corresponding dbus messages. The network attached printer discovery was done as a hal addon, which mimics the behaviour provided for USB attached printers. When you run CUPS, system-config-printer uses hal-cups-utils which has it's own method of plugging into HAL for async printer discovery and it pretty much ignores the network attached printer discoveries. This is consistent with it's operation on other platforms. Instead, when you launch system-config-printer, and ask to create a new queue, it asks CUPS to discover the available printers using the CUPS backend modules. Shouldn't there be a popup messages alerting to this in Services settings (services-admin)? You might file an RFE to mark the printers:snmp service as incompatible with the cups/scheduler service, though strictly speaking, they aren't really incompatible. They just don't interact with each other, but could be made to do so. -Norm ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] solaris binary compatibility
Hi, How can I find a list of supported ABI compatibility matrix for Solaris ? I know solaris famous with its backward compatibility but I need to run Solaris 2.5.1 binary on Solaris 8 (or maybe later). Is that supported? By the way how can I find the latest hardware that Solaris 2.5.1 supports? (maybe sun ultra 60?) I have a situation that I must make a failover machine for a sun solaris 2.5.1. What I think is I either use Solaris 8 on V210 machine and copy 2.5.1 binaries or I will install Solaris 2.5.1 on a Ultra 60 ( or maybe blade 100?) machine. URLs and answers are highly appreciated. I found out that (http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5080651 ) I can upgrade 2.5.1 to Solaris 8 which means 8 and 2.5.1 are binary compatible (am I right?) ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] Use of opensolaris
It seems a lot of questions about opensolaris are directed at using it as a desktop (firefox and mplayer for example). Opensolaris is supposed to be a precursor to the next Enterprise Solaris but directing efforts at desktop features seems misguided. Solaris has always been a server OS not a desktop and I would like to see the efforts spent making Opensolaris a solid enterprise server, not a desktop OS. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] Use of opensolaris
Hello, then you see only part of the overall picture. Can't OpenSolaris offer something on the Desktop and continue to be a good server OS at the same time? A modern server OS *needs* a fancy GUI in order to survive. And it needs GUI tools to administer Enterprise features. Also, would you call upcoming AI a desktop feature? And the text installer under development right now? Or ha-cluster software? Or hp-cluster? It SMF a desktop feature? Or is ZFS? On http://mail.opensolaris.org/ you find an overview of what OpenSolaris consists of. Desktop is just a small piece in the puzzle, even though it is the most visible one. p.s. Get hold of the OpenSolaris Bible: http://www.amazon.com/OpenSolaris-Bible-Wiley-Nicholas-Solter/dp/0470385480/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8s=booksqid=1252549367sr=8-1 You will always have it as reference on your Desk, I'm sure of this.

Re: [osol-discuss] Use of opensolaris
AI is replacing jumpstart which is an enterprise necessity. SMF is an enterprise feature and reminds me of AIX's srcmstr. zfs is certainly an enterprise feature. A text installer is not a gui that needs gnome or anything like that. I run OpenBSD as a server and don't have X11 installed. I run AIX as a server (granted it isn't a desktop by any stretch of the imagination) and don't have X11 installed. I run Solaris as a server and don't have X11 installed. A gui isn't needed for an Enterprise OS. I run HACMP on a text screen. I run Sun Cluster from the command line. Granted, I have to use a gui for Red Hat Cluster Suite, but that is a failure of the product, I shouldn't have to (look about at HACMP and Sun Cluster). -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Just because a bunch of people are working on desktop related projects, doesn't mean there's not a significant number of people working on server based projects - a look through the various putback logs to ON is clear validation that there's a lot of server oriented features going back with each and every build. What I will say is that for some, the first experience of OpenSolaris (and hopefully Solaris Next) will come through desktop. Yes, that's getting a LiveCD sent to them free or charge and installing it on bare metal on their laptop or through Xen or VirtualBox so they can do a basic evaluation of the OS. A good user experience there will reduce the barriers to adoption in the enterprise space IMO. Different audiences, but both equally valid IMO.
