Never compile anything in a locale other than "C" unless you are sure
2
that your C-compiler and the program 'nm' has been patched.
3
This is not needed with Solaris 2.6 or later and with the Workshop 5.0

To ensure that locale "C"' is set, do
21
1) On Solaris before 2.5.1 'nm' dumps core in any other locale.
22
For that reason lorder will not work.

*** no patch available **** but fixed on Solaris 2.5.1

2) The SunPro C-compiler will not convert floating
27
point numbers correctly if e.g. in "de" locale (Germany)
28
1.3 will be interpreted as 1.0!!!!

If you want to do compilations on Solaris, it is best not have /usr/ucb
32
in your PATH. If you want to have /usr/ucb in the PATH it must be the last
35
To be able to use 'make' 'as' and 'ld' you need to make sure that
36
/usr/ccs/bin is in your path.
38
Make sure - even if you use GCC - you don't use GNU as, GNU ld

For CD-Recording please read the README.volmgt too.

On Solaris you need to stop the volume management if you like to use the USCSI
44
fallback SCSI transport code. Even things like cdrecord -scanbus
45
will not work if the volume management is running.

If you run Solaris 7 FCS, install patch 107465-02 to fix a read ahead bug in the

If you have problems with 12 byte SCSI commands on Solaris (mainly x86) get
