AudioProblem with Solaris 10 on ASUS M2N SLI DELUXE Board

MikeTG · August 16, 2007, 2:19pm

Hallo everybody,
My Solaris 10 is installed on a machine with an ASUS M2N SLI DELUXE Board. Since months I'm looking around how to listen music or any other Audio-Files from it without any success.
Does any one can contribute with advices or posting some helpful links?

In other hand, I've a "Brother HL-2030 USB-Laser-Printer" and can't print with it from Solaris 10. IS there any walk around for Solaris yet ?

Thanks for your help.

From another Forum, I was recommended to download and install " realplay-10.0.6.1386-sunos-5.10-i386-studio10.bin" from "Helix Community".

1�_I've downloaded the binary from "Helix Community", but couldn't go any further while installing. Here is the reason:

"Some required libraries seem to be missing from your system. Installation
can continue without them, but you will be unable to run the HelixPlayer
without them. You will need to install them (or if they are already present
you may simply need to update your system's library paths or LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable.
libiconv (libiconv.so)
continue with installation? [y/n]: n "

I've searched for the files and they are installed(with pkg-get) in:

/opt/csw/lib/libiconv.so
/opt/csw/lib/libiconv.so.2
/opt/csw/lib/libiconv.so.2.2.0

Sure there are some Lib.PATH missing.

2�_Question: How can add(clean) some PATH, MANPATH and Library to an Account when using the sh and (or) ksh?
Is there any good documentation for it?

Greetings

Environment Variables

To setup your accounts properly for these packages you need to have your environment variables pointing to the software. You must have at least the following set up:

For /bin/sh (~/.profile) and /bin/ksh (~/.kshrc):

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/X11/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/etc:/usr/etc:/usr/local/X11/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/etc:/usr/sbin
MANPATH=/usr/local/man:/usr/man:/usr/local/X11/man
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH MANPATH

Recommended:

PAGER=less
EDITOR=vi
CC=gcc
export PAGER EDITOR CC

For /bin/csh and /usr/local/bin/tcsh (~/.cshrc):

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/X11/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib"
setenv PATH "/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/etc:/usr/etc:/usr/local/X11/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/etc:/usr/sbin"
setenv MANPATH "/usr/local/man:/usr/man:/usr/local/X11/man"

Recommended:

setenv PAGER less
setenv EDITOR vi
setenv CC gcc

Thanks for the reply. But still there are some more question.

1�_ There is no ".kshrc" file in my home directory. Should I touch the file or should it be create automatically? Or if I only edit the ".profile" file, should that be enough when working with the Bourne-shell?

2�_ You've wrote this:

PAGER=less ----> I would like what it does ???
EDITOR=vi -----> Is it necessary? What about vim?
CC=gcc -----> Talking about compiler, I'm learning C++ and didn't have
any success with gcc while compiling my works(always
shows error).
I'm using the g++ one

Hope you'll be so explicit like above

Greetings.
