Sorry. I'll go to the OpenCSW group if I find I need their packages.
OpenIndiana didn't seem to be listed on their website as something they
support. And after three weeks of my first OI install, I probably wasn't
thinking very clearly. System admin stuff isn't an area I'm very strong in.
Why not look at pkgsrc? It is working well on Openindiana/Illumos, and is
supported by Joyent (
http://www.perkin.org.uk/posts/pkgsrc-2012Q3-packages-for-illumos.html).
Joyent even adapt the packages to support SMF on SmartOS.

Yes, pkgsrc is a great tool. To install some software with pkgsrc and
watch it pull down the source, compile, install, etc. is really amazing.
However, it is another step away from "real" Solaris. The "

Thanks Richard for your advice. This seems to have worked.

Hi,
But what about using pkgbuild from the spec file extra (SFE) team which is
available from the OI-SFE repository ?
You can build you packages and publish them to your own local IPS
repository in no time.
You actually don't need to learn how to make IPS packages, just write spec
files like for R

Jon,
Thanks, that got me past the problem. BTW, I tried your package which
gave me the same results as mine. In addition, when I log in to user nx
your installation complains about embedded newlines in strings.
I can almost taste this now.

have you "run gdmsetup and enable XDMCP" ?

actually I can't find gdmsetup ... have you enabled gdm in some way though?

If I use the ssh running nxnode to test it, I get a black window and it
responds to resizing with the appropriate messages. Unfortunately,
using the nxclient fails without trying to bring up a window. It gets as
far as "Downloading session data" and then it reports "Session startup
failed".

Hi,
I have tried to upgrade my laptop Acer TravelMAte 7730 from os b134 to oi
b157a7.
In b134 the driver bcme has worked for the BCM5764M. After the upgrade neither
bcme nor bge driver works.
I can see that the driver _init and _info functions are called but never the
attach routine. So it sh

I can't tell you the internals of how the NX protocol works, but it does
*not* require or use XDMCP or X directly, I have used regular NX on Linux
hosts in runlevel 3 (no X11 running directly on the host), just with all
the software installed.
