[osol-discuss] Upgrade to Opensolaris dev 123 from SXCE b122 complete
First I would like to praise all the people involved in developing Opensolaris. I have now successfully upgraded (sort of) from my install of SXCE. It went pretty smooth with exception of one hiccup, which I'll get to later. My procedure was to purchase a new hard drive (in my case, Intel X-25M). I installed the from the live CD. After that upgraded to the development b123 build. No came the fun part, get my original Home directory working. So I mounted my old hard drive. Had to do this manually, simply a format command and escape from format with "CTL-C" to find the ID of the hard drive. For me, this was a little more work, because on SXCE I put my Home directory in /usr and succumbed to /export/home for Opensolaris. After coping the Home directory over I had to edit my Thunderbird and Mozilla "pref.js" files for the new Home directory. Next was to get my one main program "Pro-Engineer" running. I installed "SUNWmfrun", the License manager and the Pro-E binaries. It ran no problems. OK now back to my one hiccup. After I copied over my previous Home directory I get an error message upon startup after loging in. "There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with a status 256)" It doesn't prevent me from logging in, all seems fine after I close this dialog. I did check with running the binary gconf-sanity-check-2 and it exited with no errors. Does anybody have any ideas how to resolve this without creating a new user login?

If you see the error dialog everything and if you don't care much about your own little configuration for the desktop including things added onto panel or applications that are to be restarted, you can run gnome-cleanup. That should clear things out for you. -Ghee Paul ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

The only issue with a standard installation may be the Motif libraries are missing. Make certain you load package SUNWmfrun. I have both Pro Engineer WF4 and WF5 running on Opensolaris b127, with compiz enabled. In my opinion, it runs better than with Solaris 10. The only small problem is staring it with compiz running, I have created a small script to start it. If you get far enough where this is what you decide, I'd be happy to supply my script to you. If you have any questions getting Pro-E running on Opensolaris, just ask. Paul ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
