Hi again Gabriele.<br>
<br>
Had a bit more of a play. Ended up scripting my finish script.<br>
I had XStreamOS running in a virtual box without issues, so tried to
install it on bare metal. Unfortunately, what I have available is a
Lenovo T410 and a Toshiba Portege R700-194. Both of these failed
miserably on display drivers. I know the Lenovos are quite hit and
miss with display drivers anyway and I never tried the Toshiba with
anything before today (I sort of acquired these on long-term loan,
also know as, I got hold of them before they went into the crusher
because the staff that had them left).<br>
<br>
Having installed XStreamOS, I then tried to install Sun Ray on them.
I had to work around a few things and eventually got stuck with the
Sun Ray software saying there were no displays available.<br>
google searches didn't reveal anything (and I'm getting tired now).
I disabled lxdm as that was obviously complaining that it didn't
work. But I don't think this should prevent the Sun Ray software
from working.<br>
<br>
Won't have a chance to have a look at this until probably about a
week's time now, but if you have any experience with Sun Ray
software, I would appreciate any insights you might have into why
XStreamOS wouldn't play nice with it...<br>
(I suspect installing it on XStreamOS is probably illegal, I'm
currently calling it practising, but wouldn't want that on the
public internet, hence the private email).<br>
<br>
Thanks again for all your efforts.<br>
Ciao,<br>
Eric<br>

Hi Gabriele.<br>
<br>
Before I go playing around with this further....<br>
What are my chances of getting this to work with a Solaris 11 AI
server? I.e. I use the bootable Solaris 11 AI to install XStreamOS
Desktop? What would the package be that I would need to install (I
checked and "entire" which it would be for Solaris isn't there, so
presumably it's something else, but there were several potential
candidates)?<br>
<br>
Great work.<br>
Thanks.<br>
Eric<br>
