I have a sparc computer running with solaris 10 and samba 3.04. It's got
a HP laserjet 6P printer attached. I am trying to print from a windows
xp workstation with this printer using samba. Samba is already
configured and I am able to print from the windows XP workstation but
the printer prints just strange postscript code, no the typical windows
test page I am trying to print. This is my smb.con ( a very simple
configuration)
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
load printers = yes
netbios name = carlos
show add printer wizard = yes
printing = bsd
security = share
disable spoolss = no
[printers]
guest ok = Yes
comment = All Printers

path = /var/spool/samba
use client driver = Yes
[data]
comment = Data
path = /export
force user = rogelio
force group = staff
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
I connected the printer with the parallel port to the windows
workstation and it prints perfectly. The driver I use is in the windows
workstation is the same in both cases. Any idea?

Two things:
For hp PS capable printers, the printer type needs to be "PostScript",
and the content type also "PostScript".
On Windows, any Windows, you need to configure the printing to end all
jobs with ^D.
This is the only way I have been able to get it to work. If anybody
knows of a cleaner or a better way, please, by all means, step forth! |

Question #2. If I use 'cdrw' to create a copy of the CD-ROM and then transfer that iso image to my PC and burn CD with my Adpatec Easy CD, Will it work ? Any suggestions....

Forget about it, it's a waste of your time.
Install the cdrtools suite from Blastwave, and then:
# /etc/init.d/volmgt stop && cdrecord -scanbus
(output omitted, however you should get the address of the burner back.)
# readcd dev=0,1,0 f=/var/tmp/CD.IMG
where "0,1,0" is to be replaced with the device you get back from
`cdrecord -scanbus`.
The ".IMG" file is a raw image of the CD. If the CD was written as an
ISO FileSystem, you may be able to mount it under Solaris or Windows by
renaming it to "CD.ISO" and using `lofiadm` or some other tool under
Windows, respectively.
Technically speaking, `readcd` will create an image of *any* data CD,
including but not limited to SGI IRIX EFS CDs, Apple HFS CDs, and so on. |

Re: Solaris 10 x86 (gold) will not install/start due to X-server errors

John_B a écrit :
| Quote: | You know, I'm really getting tired of Sun's sorry exceuses for drivers
of industry-standard hardware.
Last week, I installed Solaris 10 x86 (gold, not beta or "express") on a
Celeron 533 w/ 128 MB RAM and an ATI Rage chipset. It found everything
except the network card (Intel Pro/100+) and audio (on-board, probably
AC'97-based). The only thing that I had to do that was "special" is
change the video driver from the XF86 version to the "standard" version.
I decided that if I'm going to use this as my main workstation at work,
I want something beefier. So, I got my hands on a Pentium IV w/ 512 MB
RAM and ATI Rage 128 Pro. The installation identified *exactly* what
the chipset is, but failed the installation every time. Here are the
scenarios:
- Let Solaris install automatically: freezes at the "Determine
additional network information..." statement or whatever that screen is.
|
I had the same problem installing Solaris 10 on a Dell.
What i do is to choose install option 4 and let solaris to detect
the screen configuration. When the installer display the screen
configuration press Esc then continue (F2) and choose to *bypass* the
test phase (F4).
Do the same when installer detects you previously bypassed the test with
the CD#2 (bypass with F5).
After that it works perfectly.
Chris. |

After the first part of setup, whwe the installation starts it breaks down

I don't know where the peoblem is. Maybe sol10 doesn't support my mobo or
SATA? I couldn't find any suitable answer on the Hardware Compatibility
list.
I had to turn off raid support in the BIOS. Solaris 10 did not like the |
raid but worked great with my dual sata drives. |

Wait for S10u1 or download current Solaris Express.

Re: sol 10 / install / networking
|
|
|
thank you for the reply
yes, i meant the "iprb0". however, the interactive installation terminated
because it could not establish the network connection (it ended with the
error "runCmd" & something with ybind or so - sorry, i don't remember
more).
the console installation (text only) did somehow the same, but i ran out of
time and so i didn't try again.
is it possible/favourable to specify "not networked" during the installation
and try to fix it later ? solaris without network doesn't make much sense to
me...
thanks

during the boot sequence, the message "attemp to configure ip0br..." is

Perhaps you mean iprb0, an Intel Ether Express Pro 100B NIC?
Don't worry about that message. It only means that you do not have a
server on your network configured as a boot server.
You can start worrying about your network connection if you still have no
connectivity after the system reboots following the installation of CD-1.

I do believe there is already a Gentoo Port of OpenSolaris in the works I
personally hope OpenSolaris doesnt end up with tons of forks, ill rather see
the project follow very close to the BSD development process where its
basically the same group of people handling overall process of the entire OS
and not the Kernel ala Linux.

It's the name of the guy who wrote a book called "Solaris". It was
remade into a movie starring George Clooney fairly recently.

But the original movie was made by Andrei Tarkovsky.
And the swedish "lem" really means "limb", which has been associated
with the male organ in swedish.

Stanislas Lem: prolific, polish, science-fiction writer; in my
opinion, the un-official grand-father of cyberpunk (the father being
William Gibson).

seems a bit on the high side I think. What types of things would cause
this?
Im in the process of trying to figure out why my machine 'pauses' for
about 10 seconds quite a lot these days.

IMHO context switches happen if there are many active processes,
but also system (kernel) can use different contexts.
There is hardly a limit for context switches.
If you want a better insight, use
vmstat 2
and
man vmstat
|
Good idea, I tried it and saw this (ive cropped out stuff that didnt
change at all)
faults cpu
in sy cs us sy id
317 307 224 7 1 92
467 304 138 1 0 98
497 446 157 3 1 97
332 153 99 0 0 100
303 119 78 0 0 100
305 97 84 0 0 100
302 88 73 0 0 100
So the only thing happening when my machine 'pauses' is that system
calls seem to decrease. |
