DVD-ROM/CD-ROM Drives on Headless Systems
Power management of interactive devices such as removable media is linked with power
management of your monitor and the graphics card that drives your monitor. If your screen is
active, devices such as the CD-ROM drive and diskette drive remain in full-power mode. These
devices might switch to low-power mode on a system without a monitor. To restore power to
the CD or diskette drive, use the volcheck command to obtain the latest status from each
removable device.
Alternatively, you can disable power management on your system by using the Dtpower GUI.
By disabling power management, these devices remain in full power mode.
x86: Manual Conguration Required to Specify
Non-U.S. English Keyboards
By default, the kdmconfig program species Generic US-English (104-Key) as the keyboard
type that is connected to the system. If the system's keyboard is not a US-English keyboard, you
must manually specify the keyboard type during installation. Otherwise, the installation will use
the default keyboard specication, which is inconsistent with the system's actual keyboard type.
Choose one of the following workarounds.
Workaround 1: If the system's keyboard is not a US-English keyboard, perform the following
steps during installation:
1. When the Proposed Window System Conguration For Installation screen is displayed,
press Esc.
Note – The information on the Proposed Window System Conguration For Installation
screen, which includes the keyboard type, is displayed only for 30 seconds. If you want to
change conguration settings, you must press Esc before the 30 seconds lapse. Otherwise,
the installation continues by using the displayed settings.
2. Change the keyboard type to the type that corresponds to your system's keyboard.
3. Press Enter to accept the changes and continue with the installation.
Workaround 2: To change the keyboard type on a system that is already running the Oracle
Solaris 10 OS, use the kdmconfig program. Choose the option that applies to the type of X
server your system is running.
■
If your system is running the Xsun server, follow these steps:
1. Run kdmconfig.
2. Use the Change Keyboard option to change the keyboard type.
