[indiana-discuss] network trunking--can opensolaris do it?

Does opensolaris offer network trunking capabilities? I did some searches on the opensolaris.org site and found references to Sun Trunking software, but it looks like you need a special card for that and an opensolaris version of the pkg isn't present in the repo. Thanks, Tom _

Hi Gilles, Thanks for those details. That enabled me to successfully build pidgin. However my question was more targeted at finding out if the process I was following is the correct process to build ANY tool from its spec file. It seemed to me that there was a piece of the puzzle missing in my

[indiana-discuss] Can't Install OOO in os0811_99

I installed os0811_99 LiveDVD and have noticed quite a few regressions. E.g., I couldn't install OpenOffice.org 3.0 again (this problem was solved couple of previous builds ago, but it re-occurs in build 99). Also, I am getting this "unknown host" problem, which went away in the 0805 LiveCD, and

[indiana-discuss] unable to boot b99

hello all, since 2 days, my laptop is unable to boot b99. The symptom is the same as the one described here: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=79357&tstart=0 but it doesn't work for me. My problem is different: i upgraded from b97 to b99, and b99 has worked during days, but sin
