sunLib.rules missing on Solaris 2.6/Ultra 2, (xmkmf not working)

sunLib.rules missing on Solaris 2.6/Ultra 2, (xmkmf not working)

Post by Ron Morfit » Thu, 11 Dec 1997 04:00:00



I'm trying to compile some X-applications on a new Ultra 2 with Solaris
2.6 installed.  Using xmkmf gives me the error shown below:

imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/lib/X11/config
"/usr/lib/X11/config/sun.cf", line 224: Can't find include file
sunLib.rules
imake: Exit code 2.  Stop.

If anyone knows where I can find a (Solaris 2.6) compatible sunLib.rules
file, I would appreciate your help.

You're not using the standard Sun xmkmf.

Sun's mkmf would say:

imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/openwin/lib/X11/config

If you use teh right config files (and they actually seem to work in 2.6)
you won't need sunLib.rules; that's for SunOS 4.x

You need sv4Lib.rules which does work.

1. can't read Solaris 2.6 x86 hard disk on Solaris 2.6 Ultra-1 ?!?

I was going to use this hard drive to move large files from my
Ultra to my Pentium PC for CD-R backup, but upon "boot -r" on
the Ultra I saw an error about "invalid geometry" on sd3, the
drive I had formatted on my PC to be ufs.  And now of course
I can't even "prtvtoc" this disk ("Unable to read Disk geometry"),
so mounting it is seemingly out of the question.

What's the problem?  Was I naive to assume the a ufs on a Solaris
system would be the same regardless of CPU type?  I really don't
want to use Ethernet to transmit potentially gigabytes of data
on a regular basis :-(...

Please reply via email (and post here, of course), as I don't
get a chance to keep up with the newsgroup as regularly as I
would wish.  Thanks.
