Many thanks for your input, Damien. Seems i will have to buy new firewire HDs to test it seriously ;-)

Hi Pierre,

Sun Solaris 10 is a really great improvement compared as older Solaris release, for me, I like solaris because this OS is unbreakable (if you haven't got a root password), (not software who are around) and Solaris is hard like a rock. I have tried FreeBSD, and I found that Solaris is more advanced than FreeBSD (dtrace, Solaris containers, smf are great). Suse Linux 9.3 (Mandriva and Fedora) are more advanced for a desktop use for now, but in the futur, with OpenSolaris, Solaris can become also advanced like linux in the desktop. (But, I found that SunOS is more advanced than Linux). For example: There are now an OpenSolaris KDE Team. http:// dot.kde.org/1121719390/

And Solaris 10 haven't got for now all his features, the ZFS filesystem will be probably the best filesystem ever made (for me) because Sun have acquired StorageTek, and the Janus project will be also very great (Run any linux software under the Solaris OS).

Solaris need some thing for now, but the most important is: graphic drivers. NVidia provide graphics driver for Solaris, and is it really great. When the Janus project will release, you can run any linux game (or Windows game with Cedega)
under Solaris.
ATI doesn't provide any driver for now, but I am waiting (because I have got an ATI card).

For me (and for a lot of other people), Sun Solaris is the most advanced UNIX Operating system.

There is one problem with Solaris compared to recent linux distrobution, is it configuration tools who contains a GUI. And Runrev is made for that. If there is a Runrev for Solaris, I will today write GUI for the OpenSolaris OS, and permit to all users and administrators in the world to use Solaris/OpenSolaris.. (OpenSolaris is the Solaris OS but fully OpenSource, Solaris OS provide only support, this look like RedHat enterprise Linux and RedHat Fedora Core.).

And OpenSolaris will quickly become better, because there are Sun, who work on OpenSolaris, and the Open-Source community.

More information about new technologies who are in the Solaris 10 OS, http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/index.jsp.

Is it my view of Solaris,

Thanks for your votes.

Regards.

Damien

Currently using Rev 2.6 Entreprise in about "n-tier" developments under MacOS X, Linux x86 and Win XP...

Question : i tested Solaris 8 years before without finding it realy more advenced than Suse-Linux Pro. How would you rate Solaris 10 in comparaison to (1) FreeBSD and (2) Suse-Linux 9.3 Pro or Linux-Fedora Core 4 ?

Best Regards,

Hi all,

I am an using runrev, and I wan't to join and to contribute to the OpenSolaris community (in my free time). With Runrev, I can make powerful GUI (for exemple: a configuration center) in GTK+ 2.0 look and feel. But, runrev doesn't support Sun Solaris x86 for now, only Solaris Sparc (only Sparc 32 bits).

So, I ask if there are any way for have Runtime Revolution compatible with all Solaris platform.

Solaris x86, x86-64
Solaris SPARC, SPARC 64.
Solaris PowerPC (Not release yet, but is it a project).

Solaris is more and more used since he became free.

Runtime Revolution have got a real potential, and if the community discover him, his potential can be used by more and more developpers.

If you agree with what I said, please vote or confirm this enhancement request :

Sun Solaris 10 website:

OpenSolaris website:

Solaris PowerPC project:

and, if you disagree, please say me why.

Thanks.

Girard Damien : Unix/Linux user.
