[kde-solaris] Sunray on KDE-343 ( was: KDE 3.4.3 install questions )

[Lars Tunkrans]

Hi,

   I have verified that I can start the Studio 10 compiled  KDE 3.4.3 - 
X86  on a SunRay,
I am using  64 bit solaris10u1  on a dualcore Athlon64.
However when I run  pldd(1)  on the running binaries they have  linked 
up the
/usr/X11/lib/NVIDIA/libGLcore.so.1
/usr/X11/lib/NVIDIA/libnvidia-tls.so.1
/usr/X11/lib/NVIDIA/libGL.so.1

So  I assume that you need to install the NVIDIA  graphics driver on the 
server  even if you do not
have a nVidia  graphics card in it.  
The SunRay obviously dont have a nVidia card. 

Please note  that  I have only run this for  10 minutes  there is no
assurance from my part that this risk free :-)

//Lars
