I keep picking away at the post install issues I've seen as time allows. Today, I fixed the loghost problem (thanks to a reader's suggestion. Thanks again, 198.151.12.8 whoever you are!)

Now I'm facing the "cde won't start" problem and I think I see the problem:

# svcs -l cde-login

(snipped)

dependency require_all/none svc:/application/font/fc-cache (absent)

I can't find anything useful on sunsolve.sun.com or Google. I'm still thinking this could have something to do with the install disk #2 issue I had and that I'm missing a package. I'll work on figuring out what package fc-cache comes from to start. I'm way out of my area of expertise here, but it's a useful stretch.

Comments:

The program fc-cache is part of fontconfig, you probably need to install the following packages:

SUNWfontconfig
SUNWfontconfig-root
SUNWfontconfig-docs
