1Labs Gallery: OpenSolaris 2009.06 Puts on a Friendlier Face
by Jason Brooks
2Package Manager
The Package Manager in OpenSolaris 2009.06 received a speed bump and cross-repository searching capabilities.
3VirtualBox Support
I was pleased to see that OpenSolaris hosts running VirtualBox can now expose USB devices to guests, but I’d like to see OpenSolaris do a better job rendering VirtualBox interface fonts.
4Source Juicer
I hope to see software package availability for OpenSolaris improve through the project’s Source Juicer service.
5Crossbow
I used OpenSolaris’ new Crossbow network virtualization system to create a full test network within my OpenSolaris instance.
6Familiar Applications
From a desktop perspective, OpenSolaris offers many of the same applications available on Linux machines.
7Time Slider
OpenSolaris’ ZFS file system-backed Time Slider snapshotting feature has been extended to add support for creating manual snapshots of directories.
8More Time Slider
The system’s Time Slider feature also adds an option for exploring previous versions of a particular file.
