You don't want to just use the beadm command to roll back to an earlier build?
This is what I usually did when I had problems after upgrading to a newer build.

If you want IPS package management so badly, then why don't you use the
"Indiana" version of OpenSolaris (i.e. 2008.11) which comes on a CD-ROM instead
of the "Nevada" version of OpenSolaris (Solaris Express) which comes on a DVD.
Indiana is for people who want newer technologies like IPS. SXCE
I wiped all the LWS packages from my main OpenSolaris box right before the

I've fixed my sshfs problem, it was an incompatibility between the default
usage of sshfs and the way that truecrypt mounts volumes. Essentially I had to
use the -0 -allow_other parameter as truecrypt requires root level access to

box).

I compiled mplayer from an svn checkout, dropped it into /usr/local/bin, added
that to my PATH, and everything has been working fine.
Doing that is much easier than dealing with third party packages, IMO.

I was trying to download VLC and mplayer from the Blastwave repository and
neither one would work. I just kept getting an install error over and over

Any other place these media players are available from?

Does anyone know of a way to get OpenSolaris to remember window size and

I've solved this problem in this fashion:
a) Boot from FC9 and toggle the BOOT flag from /sda3 to /sda1
b) Reboot
c) Now boot with the OpenSolaris 2008.11 text option (GRUB)
d) Strangely, system maintenance got invoked due to Console login issue.
e) Logged in with the user to get the root acces
Thanks!

My latest new install is sxce104. Root does not have the button as a menu item.
I've just been doing su ; password ; then init 5 or init 6. It was more
convenient with menu item button.
