[xstreamos-discuss] XStreamOS Desktop & VirtualBox

[Alessandro D'Ovidio]

First of all, many thanks for your praiseworthy efforts!

I have installed XStreamOS Desktop in VirtualBox, where a Solaris 11.2 
machine is already running smoothly.
All went rather fine except for:

1) No sound available. My VirtualBox audio settings are: Windows 
DirectSound / ICH AC97. It's working fine in Solaris, but it doesn't in 
XS. I tried other settings, but to no avail.
2) Setting a different locale in .profile (LC_TIME, LC_CTYPE, etc.) 
works in Solaris, but it doesn't in XS. After a log out, of course... I 
had to put the settings in /etc/default/init.
3) Solaris allows to install some games, like the gnome-games, but in XS 
they are not available. I think that a desktop OS should contemplate 
some games...
4) PCManFM doesn't allow to umount anything, unlike Nautilus in Solaris. 
I have to umount cdroms and pen drives manually using the terminal. Not 
a great solution for a mainstream user...

Your LibreOffice 4 build is a great asset, compared to Solaris, where 
only OpenOffice 3.4 is available, thanks to the Adfinis Group. I think 
that your OS is going to be really great.

Please let me know about the a.m. issues, and
Good work!
