Did you try the new installer in build 70? It just changed
the default layout.

Some DVDs contain two filesystems [1], hence mountable as either hsfs
and udfs. fstyp returns the first match, and that's what HAL will use.
One fix would be to treat these in the same fashion we treat hybrid
data+audio media, i.e. pop a dialog a

Dennis , I agree with you that SNV70 is not mounting a Vista UDFS dvd
correctly
I did a clean Install of Snv_70 on a new disc ( a 10.000 rpm disc which
contributes
nicely to the speed of the system btw )
The automount by HAL and rmmount did not mount the UDF filesystem

Strangly .. basic applications fail to launch.
For example, I wanted to see what happens when I insert a Microsoft Windows
Vista Business Edition DVD into my machine. I would expect that it would be
automatically mounted but I was wrong .. snv_70 mounted the DVD as a HSFS
filesystem which it is n

No offense taken, I just feel generally bad pestering the Solaris developers.
On topic: here is a closeup of Vista, Mac and Ubuntu fonts. It would be

I think it is a giant leap in the right direction but I really do hope that
the old text based console installer is sti
Is there a registry of java package names, to avoid name clashes?
For example, in jkstat, can I just use org.opensolaris.jkstat?
(And what's the difference between org.opensolaris and org.opensolaris.os?)
It strikes me that there ought to be a central list of package names
so that we can avoid c

Hey all,
I just downloaded the DVD and CD version of SXCE70 and this is my
experience so far:
First of all, the new installer looks flashy and neat. I like the looks :D
Then some things I bumped into during the installation.
