How to configure an X86 Solaris 10 laptop as Jumpstarter for SPARC T1000?

I believe that I have taken due diligence WRT using search and Google to research the topic. There is a little voice that says "hopefully you haven't and the answer is right there in front of you".
That being said, I did find an article for [configuring an X86 box to jumpstart another X86 box|http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/features/articles/jumpstart_x86_x64.jsp]. As many of you well know the T1000 is lacking a keyboard and monitor port so I'm forced to jumpstart the server. I received conflicting information whether I can jumpstart a T1000 (SPARC) box with an X86. My intuition says that this can be done, but may need modifications to the process in the hyperlink.
Before trekking forward, {color:#0000ff}+I'd like to hear from you if you have jumpstarted a SPARC box with an X86 box.+{color} Ideally there would be a [link to a wiki, (much like this broken link I found on Google).|http://www.ignorantinc.com/www/ignorantwiki/index.php/Solaris_Wiki:Procedures/jumpstart] *+{color:#0000ff}Any procedures or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated{color}+*. Thank you for taking the time to this posting.

There should not be a reason it doesn't work the support is there for both sparc and x86 support.
What steps have you taken and what part is not working ?
The basic high level steps for a network boot are just
to create the image
cd /os_image/Solaris_xx/Tools
./setup_install_server /somepath
set the client up
cd /somepath/Solaris_xx/Tools
./add_install_client client sun4v
on the client
ok boot netAnyway just need some more details around where you are seeing the problem, what you have done etc.

Fontconfig-2.4.2 package incompatibility w/Solaris 10 5/08 x86

FYI, I found that after installing this package via pkgadd from http://www.sunfreeware.com/indexintel10.html the startup of the window manager would hang indefinitely when attempting a desktop login.
A perusal of pkginfo also shows that there is already a fontconfig package bundled with the OS:
system SUNWfontconfig Fontconfig library
system SUNWfontconfig-docs Fontconfig library documentation
system SUNWfontconfig-root Fontconfig library configuration files
I installed the freeware package because another package I wanted to install (gd) was dependent on it.
Once I deinstalled the freeware package, the desktop login worked, so it looks like installation of the freeware package should be avoided.
To note, I'm running Solaris 10 5/08 x86 on an IBM ThinkPad T60, although I don't believe this issue is hardware specific.

FYI, I just noticed the same conflict on SPARC boxes too. A simple "pkgrm SMCfontc" removes the package and solves the problem.

Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (x86) VM hangs

Hello,
I have downloaded Oracle VM Template for Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (x86) from Oracle Software Delivery Cloud
and created a VM out of it. When I start it the blue Oracle Solaris screen is displayed in the console and the VM hangs.
OVS version: 3.2.6
Hardware: Sun Server X3-2 (Formerly Sun Fire X4170 M3)
VM config:
Memory:4GB
CPU:4
Disk:40GB

Yes, but it did not help.
I did finally manage to boot Solaris 10 1/13 by changing "xvda" to "hda"
in the vm.cfg. That said, there's still a problem: the OS takes over 20 minutes
to boot.

Solaris 8 for intel x86

Hi,
i want to download the solaris 8 for x86. can any body guide me to find the download link because i can able to find the solairs 8 download link on sun website.

Since Solaris 8 is now an officially discontinued product,
you might only be able to get it if you buy used media sets
on an online auction site such as Ebay.
Could you describe your hardware?
I remember using Solaris 8 on an x86 system.
For what it did, it was good.
However there was a very limited set of hardware that would function.
If I remember correctly, your concern should be as to:
What is your motherboard chipset?
What is your disk controller chipset?
What is your video card?
What network adapter are you planning to use?
What sound card do you own?
I had it on an Intel 440LX P-II.
Only the integrated IDE connectors were recognized.
I had an 8mb ATI Rage PCI card that let me see what I was doing.
Only about two or three specific NICs worked, such as 3C905TX or a DC21140.
My original real Soundblaster 16 (ISA slot) was able to give me the beeps and chirps necessary.
If you're hoping for most anything made in the last couple of years, then forget it.
(... and forget about USB peripherals other than USB 1.x devices like keyboard/mouse)

Solaris 10 10/08 x86 DVD will not boot, workaround inc.

hi,
Downloaded the Solaris 10 10/08 x86 DVD. It will not boot up at all with the 2 Gigabyte boards I have tryed it with. GA-G33-DS3R and GA-N650SLI-DS4L I downloaded the ISO twice and checked the checksum. Burnt the DVD 4 times! The DVD works fine with my Eee PC 900 over usb. Booting the 2 gigabyte board over usb works a bit better, they get to GRUB but they still dont work correctly.
I am using IDE DVD drives with the 2 gigabyte boards. I have never had a problem like his before with my hardware. Been experimenting with lots of diffrent Linux distro's recently and they all booted fine from DVD's I have burnt from downloaded ISO's.
I have tryed the CD install disks, CD1 boots up and start the install OK, but would not finish corrctly for me. Some other problem am not going into.....
The DVD workaround I am using.
Boot up the system with am old Solaris DVD.
At the very first menu, press an arrow key to stop the 6 second timer.
Remove the old Solaris DVD and replace it with the new Solaris 10 10/08 DVD.
Wait a few seconds and select Solaris from the menu.
The install program will now continue with the new DVD. If you dont have am old solaris DVD, you could try downloading CD1 and booting that then swapping it out fot the new DVD. Not tryed this myself.

Install Wls6.0 on Solaris 8.0 for x86

I have a pc with Solaris 8.0 for x86 installed .I also install jre1.3 on it.
When I try to install wls6.0 on it ,there comes an error message"can't find
libjava.so ".
I've found the file libjava.so at path "j2re1_3_0/lib/i386/" .
Why the installer didn't find the file ??

create a link (or copy the files) from your $JDK13/bin/i386 to the /usr/bea/jdk130/bin.

I followed your instructions and was able to install the server.
However, when I tried to start the server from under mydomain,
I got an error message saying java was not found in /usr/bea/jdk130/bin/i386/native_threads/java.
I did copy the i386 directory from the J2SDK SE 1.3.0 home to
under /usr/bea/jdk130/jre/lib per your earlier post. Can you tell
me what else I have to do? TIA,

You will need to install the 1.3 JDK on your Solairs x86

the install script from the command line with the following
flag:
LAX_VM /usr/local/jdk/bin/java

Is there a sleep/hibernate mode for Solaris 10-u8-ga-x86?

I finally have a version of Solaris 10 running on my HP DV 6500t laptop. Is there a way to set-up Solaris 10-u8-ga-x86 to sleep/hibernate when the lid is closed? Then wake up when the lid is opened?
I don't want to shutdown my laptop when I take it on the road, such as to the coffee shop.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
kaialii

I just noticed on build 134 of OpenSolaris that the Shutdown Icon now has an option to suspend.

I need to change the display configuration of my macbook but I can't see to open the preferences (because the configuration is wrong!) - what can I do?

(cannot update previous post, exceeded timinout)
4. In case any of the previous operations work but the settings don't "stick". There are two plists associated with the settings:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.XXXXX-XXXXXXX.plist
The first is global to all accounts while the second is in your home directory. The X's are a sequence of hyphaninated letters and numbers. If you can get these removed then it will probably revert to a default resolution.

Resume hook for changed display configuration

Hi arch forum,
I need some help configuring my resume process. First the scenario:
I'm working with my notebook (ThinkPad T420s) on the train
and when I get off the train I close the lid and the notebook suspends. When I get to work
I drop the notebook into the docking station, where an external monitor is connected.
If I hit the power button on the docking station the notebook resumes without opening the lid,
but it does not check for changed display configuration. I have to open the lid and type my password to
get the new configuration started.
Question is: Is it possible to create a resume hook, so that X checks for the changed setup on resume before I opened the lid?
If someone could direct me to the right place in the wiki that would be great.
Now I should specify my configuration:
Gnome3 and proprietary nvidia drivers
Its a new installation so I have a systemd only setup (which takes care of suspend/resume so far)
If you need to know more, just ask.
Thanks for any help in advance,
arnold

Hi,
I'm trying to buy the exact same configuration.
although i cannot find this 2429CTT on lenovo site anywhere, is available for selling on a known european supplier.
and my propose is to have 2 Monitors connected, so I'll follow this inquire very closely and hold my order until then.
do you have any update on it?
just by curiosity, what about the rest? how does the PC feels to you? everything else is working?
thanks

W530 and quad display configuration

Hi,
I customized my W530 but in accesories it did not offer me a suitable docking station/port replicator for the four display configuration I need (3 monitors + display). Which of these
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-76617
is W530 ready? My system graphics will be NVIDIA Quadro K2000M (if it's relevant).
Thank you!
MH

To partially answer my question it is none of those replicators in the link. I found a different link where w530 is explicitely mentioned:

Unfortunately neither 433815U nor 433835U is available at the store.

T530 multiple display configuration lead to errors when closing the laptop

Hello,
I have a Lenovo T530 2429CTT and I am having some trouble when trying to set up my multiple display configuration with a Lenovo ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3.
I have an external Samsung LCD monitor which is connected to the Mini Dock via DisplayPort.
I am running Win 7 Prof.
The problem I see is with an application which uses DirectX. The display looks fine in the following configuration:
- Laptop open
- External Samsung LCD Monitor on
- Display cloned so that both devices show my desktop
The issues appear when I close the laptop. I do this because in my office I only work with the external monitor so I don't need the internal display of the laptop at that moment.
When I close the laptop the following happens:
The external display gets dark for some seconds. It comes up again, gets dark and after a while (maybe 10 sec) it stays active. Sometimes I see a notification that the color scheme has changed to Win 7 basic.
Everything seems to be fine now but when looking at the DirectX based display of my application I have some problems for example with the refresh (the display looks very weird).
BTW: The laptop has an internal and an external graphic card (Internal: Intel HD 4000, External: NVIDIA NVS 5400M).
So it seems as when the laptop gets closed, the internal graphics will be turned off. Due to this the display on the external monitor also changes the settings of the graphhic card (maybe it gets turned in an energy saver state).
I was looking at many of the NVIDIA settings without any success so hopefully somebody in this forum has an idea what is happening there.
Thanks,
Andreas
