[OpenIndiana-discuss] Problems upgrading OI

[Hans J. Albertsson]

After that I reinstalled openoffice and locale/siupport/swedish.

The resulting image boots, but logging in doesn't work very well.

Slow, never gets there, or gets there but only partially or after very 
long time. Partially in that the panels never appear, just a bucnh of 
icons on the desktop and a few open terminals show up.

I may be completely out of luck, since I run SunRay server software on 
this machine, but I can't see anything in the change lists that would 
suggest SunRay problems..
