This directory contains Solaris builds of the Granparadiso alpha8, 
which are contributed by SUN Desktop Beijing Team. If you have 
any problem with these builds, please send email to 
desktop dash discuss at opensolaris dot org


Installation:
-------------
* Tarball format

Extract the tarball to a proper location[1]
$ bzip2 -dc <tarball basename>.tar.bz2 | tar -xf -

[1]: Make sure there is no granparadiso directory there before you 
extract the tarball, it's not recommended to just overwrite the old 
granparadiso directory.

* Pkgadd format

1, First uncompress the zip file
$ bzip2 -d <zip file basename>.bz2 
You will get a package datastream file named <zip file basename>

2, Install the package as root
# pkgadd -d ./<zip file basename>
The default install location would be /opt/sfw/lib/granparadiso


To Enable Java:
---------------
cd /path/to/<install location>/plugins
ln -s /path/to/<java plugin install location>/libjavaplugin_oji.so 

On Solaris 10, Java plugin is probably located at 
/usr/java/jre/plugin/<sparc|i386>/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
On Solaris 8/9, it's probably located at 
/usr/j2se/jre/plugin/<sparc|i386>/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so


To Enable Flash/Shockwave:
--------------------------
1, Download the Flash/Shockwave plugin from
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Intel&P3_Browser_Version=Netscape4&P5_Language=English

2, Extract the tarball and place the files under
/path/to/<install location>/plugins


To Run The Application:
-----------------------
a, Execute the application by specifying the absolute path 
$ /path/to/<install location>/granparadiso

b, Add <install location> to your PATH and execute "granparadiso"

c, Add the desktop file and start from menu(pkgadd format only)
# cat >/usr/share/applications/granparadiso.desktop<<EOF

Troubleshooting:
----------------

* For Solaris 8 builds, you need to install GTK 1.2 library.
You can get the GTK 1.2 libraries from sun.com or sunfreeware.com

* Also for Solaris 8 builds, you may need to install some required 
patches.

For example, if you encounter the following error,
ld.so.1: ./granparadiso-bin: fatal: relocation error: file ./granparadiso-bin: symbol fmod: referenced symbol not found.

You probably have to install Math Library(libm) patch,
Solaris 5.8 sparc: 111721 
Solaris 5.9 sparc: 111722
Solaris 5.8 i386 : 112757 
Solaris 5.9 i386 : 111728

You might have more than one libm library installed on your system, 
please make sure that you are using the one under /usr/lib.

* If you could not start up the application or encounter some 
unexpected crash, try to do this,

1, Rename the profile directory("$HOME/.mozilla" for Mozilla suite, 
"$HOME/.mozilla/firefox" for Firefox and "$HOME/.thunderbird" for 
Thunderbird)

2, Start up the application without importing anything

      
Build Configuration:
--------------------
* Firefox and Mozilla suite

Start up Mozilla/Firefox that you just installed and type 
"about:buildconfig" in the URL field, and then you would see all the 
build configurations used for this build.

* Thunderbird

Extract "buildconfig.html" from <install location>/chrome/toolkit.jar, 
which records all the build configure information of this build. 
$ jar xf /path/to/<install location>/chrome/toolkit.jar \
    content/global/buildconfig.html
