This build was produced on a solaris2.8 platform. If you encounter any problem with the package, you may contact Leon Sha This build was made from the FIREFOX_1_0_7_RELEASE tag in the CVS repository. Installation notes: * Executables are dynamically linked against GTK. For your convenience, the executables have been linked with: -R/usr/sfw/lib -R/opt/sfw/lib -R/usr/local/lib This will automatically reference the GTK libraries if they have been installed from the Solaris Companion CD (http://sunfreeware.com). Please note that Sun Studio 8 compiler was used for the build, i.e., don't use GTK 1.2 shared objects built with GCC. * If you get a lot of warnings on startup like Gdk-WARNING **: shmat failed! then you may want to increase your shared memory segment sizes. On Solaris 8, you can add the following lines to /etc/system and reboot: * Set for libgtk shared memory usage set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax = 8388608 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni = 0x1000 set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg = 0x100 * If you get an error on startup like ld.so.1: ./firefox-bin: fatal: relocation error: file ./firefox-bin: symbol fmod: referenced symbol not found. You may need to add Math Library (libm) patch.
