Darryl Gove, author of the recent Prentice Hall publication, "Solaris
Application Programming", will be joining us for this month's meeting.
This is an excellent book for OpenSolaris developers at large.
This month we're planning to change the format, in interest of a community
meeting where membe

I just received my openSolaris cd in the mail, so I booted it up... but
just like the one I downloaded and burned, my laptop's audio card isn't seen.
My card is reported in Ubuntu as:

I'm planning to build a file server based on opensolaris. Since this would be
just a file server and nothing else i'm not planning to have a cd/dvd drive.
Also I don't want to use space from my hard disk to install the OS.

I do believe that having Solaris open sourced does benefit Sun through partners
and developers. The tricky part is that Sun needs to make money from having its
crown jewels open sourced.
Apple's MacOS X builds on Darwin and is able to be benefit from features ported
to BSD, such as Dtrace and
Sorry, a bit bitter, but if Sun Inc. is going to GPLfy ZFS, they might as well
liquidate and go home.
If anybody has made money on Linux it's IBM! If ZFS goes to Linux, long IBM and
short JAVA - just like Sun made pittance on Java, OpenOffice and Solaris - it
will continue to make pennies. How
While there are all kinds of problems with ZFS on other platforms (there is
a usenet discussion right now about "zfs" data loss problems that does not
distinguish between Suns implementation and others that are currently in
development) it really would be a good thing if ZFS were to become the

Forget it. If there was someone in that camp that was actually capable of
thinking up, designing and implementing something that even remotely resembled

Quite honestly, I'd love a future WITHOUT Microsoft(R) Windows(R).

OpenSolaris supports ZFS booting - and installs that way seamlessly by
default. Solaris 10 does not. However, there are some hacks to m

This is a claim that has not yet been proven.

This is a result from using the Sun variant of getopt(3).
The way it implements long options is not we

Or take the NVidia way and keep it CDDL, but have it compile a
This page provides a good overview of "What is OpenSolaris":
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/about/faq/general_faq/
In some ways, OpenSolaris is the new "trunk" for the Solaris operating
system. When the two come together is a long way down the road.
