Tuesday December 14, 2004 Linux Compatibility on AMD64
As you can see, I'm running the Linux version of Adobe Acrobat Reader in Solaris on AMD64. This is the very latest Acrobat 5.0.9 Reader which was available for Linux on the Adobe web site a day ago. Nothing to write home about, other than it is possible to run Linux applications.
I'll be happier when we get a native Acrobat Reader for Solaris on AMD64 rather than having to run it on the Linux Compatibility. Until then, Linux Compatibility might be a good short term solution for people to migrate to Solaris on x86/AMD64.
Linux Compatibility will not be offered in the FCS of Solaris 10, but will come in a future update. AFAIK, the exact date has not been determined just yet. This is running on build 71 for all of you build trackers...
