Install Real player in Solaris 10 x86

  • Download real player from http://www.real.com/realplayer/download
  • Choose the OS as solaris x86
  • You will get RealPlayer11Gold-x86.tar.bz2 installer
  • Create a folder Real Player and put the bz2 in that folder
  • Extract it there
  • You will have a script file called realplay
  • If you double click on it you will get a pop up. choose 'run' option.
this is not the right way of installation but for temporary purpose, it's cool!
and you need to have real player installed in the system

if its not installed

try this out...

#./Bin/setup - you need to be in Real Player folder

it will ask you where do you want the real player to be installed, like [/opt/real/RealPlayer]:

you have to just press enter

then you will have to press 'F' later when it asks...it got installed in my system, hopefully it will get installed in yours too.

Mozilla-Firefox installation in linux or Solaris

Download the package from mozilla's official website, it may automatically detect your OS even otherwise you can simply specify it.

once you have downloaded the tar.gz or .pkg file
for, tar.gz
. simply extract via GUI or in the CLI, you will find a folder named mozilla, in the folder you will find a script file called firefox
. create a link to that file on to the desktop ln -s command or copy paste in GUI
. when you double-click on the icon, you will have to select "run in terminal" or simply "run" on the window popped out.
. if you want to create a launcher(i.e single click and you will have firefox running without any window popping out) you have to just drag and drop the icon(link that you have created) on the desktop to the panel at the bottom(or sometimes top) of the screen.

for .pkg(in solaris),
#pkg-get -d path_to_where_the_package_is_downloaded

UBUNTU - CHANGING BOOT ORDER

well, i guess u won't be needing this because its simply amazing working on ubuntu. its got all the features which are the basic necessity of a common user. but, in case u want to change the order by any reason

follow these steps in the terminal of ubuntu.

gedit /etc/default/grub

GRUB_DEFAULT=0 //you need to edit this line and set it one number less than the OS u want to from from 1st
for example, centos is in 5th position while boot up then set GRUB_DEFAULT=4( the reason may be bcz the values are stored in an array and so, one less than actual place value)


after this u need to run a command

sudo update-grub // u need to know the root password before u execute this command.




cheers to the self-less work done by developers of ubuntu!
