Where is 'swaps'273 (6/10/2011 7:30:12 PM) comp.unix.solaris In Solaris 7, or therabouts, there was a utility 'swaps' which could tell you what swap spaces you had, and how near they were to being full. But I do not seem to be able to find it in Solaris 10. Is it still ... Charles

HSFS vs ISO9660472 (5/22/2009 3:45:18 PM) comp.unix.solaris I had always supposed that HSFS filesystems and ISO9660 file systems (both including the customary Rock Ridge extensions), were the same thing, but seemingly not so. I run a Sun Sparc machine using Solaris-10... Charles
SPARCs, Creator Graphics and Opera121 (8/22/2008 8:24:25 PM) comp.sys.sun.hardware Note the crosspost between opera.os.solaris and comp.sys.sun.hardware, since although this is a problem in Opera (and maybe also in QT, but I can't find any Trolltech newsgroups), it may be that someone with kn...

The Great SPARC Floppy Muddle1120 (5/21/2008 10:16:27 AM) comp.sys.sun.hardware Having attempted to relocate a Flopy Drive from a SPARC-5 to an Ultra-2, and encountered all sorts of misfeatures, bugs and incompatibilities, I have written it all up on my website at http://www.cs.man.ac.u... Charles
Switching FFB between linear and gamma modes062 (11/16/2007 3:47:40 PM) comp.unix.solaris I have an Ultra 2 with Creator (FFB) frame buffer, running under Solaris 10.

Changing fonts with the style manager2167 (7/19/2007 8:05:23 PM) comp.unix.solaris I use the CDE style manager to change the size of the fonts used by default in windows. It brings up a nice window, which shows that I am using the Default Font Group, with size medium. So I change that to siz... Charles
GIMP help253 (3/21/2007 7:31:41 PM) comp.unix.solaris Has anyone out there got the GIMP that's bundled with Solaris 10 working? If so, does the 'help' feature work? If so, then you presumably have the file /usr/share/gimp/2.0/help/en/index.html and lots of o... Charles
ufsdump and inodes572 (3/8/2007 5:17:21 PM) comp.unix.solaris I had always understood that the essentail difference between ufsdump and other archiving tools, such as tar, was that it dumped inodes rather than dumping files. And so I had assumed that if you 'mv'ed a file... Charles
Case insensitive ls - want case sensitivity14172 (1/10/2012 3:18:13 PM) comp.unix.solaris My customer upgraded to Solaris 10 in November. Since then ls is no longer case sensitive e.g. B sort the same as b. Now I know they should be able to fix this but despite my reporting this several times noth... ramwater(7)

Free Ada83 compiler for older Solaris/SPARC or IRIX?2140 (2/20/2008 7:41:06 PM) comp.lang.ada Hi, does anyone out there know/have an older Ada83 compiler which runs on SPARC/Solaris (e.g. 2.6) or SGI/IRIX(6.5) which he is able/willing to share?
