building xine on solaris
------------------------

* Compile xine with GNU make (gmake, /opt/sfw/bin/gmake)

* If you get a "fatal: relocation error" ... "symbol __divdi3:
  referenced symbol not found" error when running xine, re-configure 
  xine-lib with gcc as the linker command (env LD=gcc configure ...)

* To get VIS accelerated MPEG decoding and colour space conversion 
  on Solaris SPARC, download and install Sun's mediaLib 2.0, available
  here:

    http://www.sun.com/sparc/vis/mediaLib.html


Known Problems
--------------

* Can't use MIT shared memory for local video display

  The default value for the maximum allowed shared memory segment size
  (1MByte) is very small on solaris.  You may want to increase the
  max. allowed shared memory segment size.  Add the following line to
  /etc/system to increase the shmmax parameter to 8MBytes:

	set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=8388608

  Reboot the machine after modifying /etc/system to activate the new
  default.
