Re: [osol-help] snv_b81 cannot find install software exiting to shell
I do also encounter problems with b81. I downloaded it yesterday and burned it. Before I checked the md5 sums, all were ok. So I started a new install and after the initial steps with the interactive installer the final installation went wrong. As I looked into the install log I saw many entries where the directory has not been found (/a/var/...). I even do not know if this directory exists at all, but I am quiet sure that the install process is a kind of broken. Hope that the subsequent versions go more well.

Re: [osol-help] upgrade 78 to 81 with problems - help needed with Gnome startup
what you describe happens if the user is not the owner of the users home directory . or not the owner of all the dot-files . ( ie .gnome2 .gconfd ) //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-help] snv_b81 cannot find install software exiting to shell
Did this work before on this machine ? Lots of people have reported that when you run a PC with an Nforce chipset and load the nv-sata driver and try to run the sata dvd-unit in Native mode ( i.e. not in ide emulation mode ) the sata dvd wont work. My understanding is that when you first boot from the sata dvd its using ide-emulation-mode to create the RAM disk that the installer runs from . then when the NV-SATA driver is activated it cant handle the sata-dvd. //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
[osol-help] upgrade 78 to 81 with problems - help needed with Gnome startup
Made the straightforward upgrade from 78 to 81; after nobody yelling about problems with 81. I do have some; in short: Gnome seems to kill X and get me back to the login applet. Okay: upgrade went through without any warnings or errors. Reboot. kernel dumped and restarted; this time okay. Next was ... svc.startd[7] system/wsconsole:console failed fatally: transitioned to maintenance Then I had the problem encountered earlier, with X being killed after the logon to Gnome. Last time, changing the NVIDIA driver back to the one of nv70 solved the problem, here it doesn't. Went through a lot of steps, and ended uninstalling the NVIDIA-driver completely. Then I removed the xorg.conf and restarted, after having created a new user account. Now what happens is, that as soon as the user logs on, either myself or that user with a very fresh account (rm -Rf */rm -Rf .* in the account), as soon as Gnome starts, CPU is used for a few seconds 100%, and then X is killed, and the logon applet shows again. X is run with "nv", the log does not indicated any problems. It leaves a core in the user account. When the new, fresh, user starts and decides for CDE, everything is okay and CDE comes up properly. The only thing not working is firefox, it dumps as well. But this might have to do with CDE? Now I wonder what makes Gnome (?) / X(?) core in an empty user account, just as well as in mine. It seems to have to do with Gnome, since CDE starts properly. I have tried no xorg.conf as well as one created with '/usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg -configure'. Both expose the same problem. I can confirm, that emptying the user account completely, rebooting, and selecting Gnome will kill X here and get the user back to the logon applet. Any hint appreciated, Uwe This message posted from opensolaris.org xorg.conf Description: Binary data Xorg.0.log Description: Binary data firefox_dump Description: Binary data ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org

[osol-help] Configure OpenGrok to index Subversion
I am very new to subversion and opengrok and I need some help in configuring openGrok to index my subversion repository. I have configured Subversion with apache and now I have configured OpenGrok using Tomcat and I have been able to index a directory on my machine and opengrok works great, but I have not been able to figure out how to index the subversion database. What should be the value set for SRC_ROOT in web.xml? What should be the SRC_ROOT in the opengrok/run.bat file to build the index? I tried setting it to the subversion repository URL, but that did not work. Also does SCAN_REPOS do, I have it set to true but did not seem to have made a difference.

Re: [osol-help] How to configure internet adsl
Hi, Are you connecting this ADSL modem to an Ethernet port on the PC ? What CHIPSET is used For the Ethernet port. ( intel ? , Marvell ? , Nvidia ? realtek ? ) Does solaris see the Ethernet port ? /usr/X11/bin/scanpcishould report an Ethernet Device if Solaris does recognise it. Did you get any questions on Networking During Install ? If you did not get networking questions , you may have an unsupported Ethernet chip in your PC. If you run /usr/sbin/sys-unconfig The system will reboot and you will be asked all the networking questions again If Solaris does find a supported chipset. There is about a dozen unsupported networkdrivers here: http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/ Regards //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org

I installed the free community edition of open solaris 10. I find open suse linux easier to install, use, update. My wireless card will require days to get going because it's a broadcom 4306.

Re: [osol-help] real player not working..
Just a side Note here: As most Audio and Video formats are Commercial or Patended. Its almost impossible to include players for these media types in Free Software. Since there is no money being exchanged to pay the patent holder. There are of course working software available, Mplayer - comes to mind, but you will have to build/Compile/install these players your self.

So normally all has been loaded without problems. > Is that a good sign? The kernel and the miniroot have been successfully loaded. So, if my conclusions are right, the problem is occurring between the call to boot_func() in GRUB and the call to startup_kernel() in dboot_grub.s. My problem is that there is, to my knowledge, no parameter that can be passed on the command line to activate debugging logs between these two calls. The one we used (prom_debug) activate debugging logs in startup_kernel() which apparently is not called. Maybe someone can correct me if I am wrong.

Re: [osol-help] Drive formating.
As already mentioned, your D and E are logical drives on a single DOS-style extended partition. You may be able to perform some tricks in [b]qparted[/b] to make this work. First you need to download a Linux bootable CD containing qparted. I have a version which boots from a USB flash drive --- sorry I can't remember it's name. Just google it and you will find something. After booting from the CD/Flash, run qparted and see what it can do. What you want to do is delete the E: logical partition from inside the extended partition, then resize the extended partition so that it is only just big enough for the D: logical partion (which you will not modify). After the resize, you will have some empty space to create a new Primary parition. It is on that new partition that you can install Solaris. Back up your data before doing this. I have successfully resized partitions (and filesystems) containing data using qparted, but I would not have trusted it with anything I wasn't willing to lose.
