- This involves Sun Solaris 2.x & Frame 3.1x - junk now unless interested.
- -------------
- I have just installed Solaris 2.1 on my Sun Sparc and I can sucessfully
- run Frame 3.1x in 4.x compatibility mode but cannot print. Understandable
- since Solaris 2.x is SVR4 which uses the lp print mechanism. So I select
- print to a file, which completes (rather a little too quickly) but the
- resulting file is in MIF format, not Postscript, which means the the
- postscript driver/filter puked with no error message.
-
- I called Frame support and we tried some stuff with no success.
-
- Any clues??
-
- I know that 3.1.1Solaris will be out "real soon now", but if I could just
- get by until then (and I prefer not rsh'ing to a Sun 4.x machine and displaying
- to my Solaris 2.1).
-
- Thanks,
