> Getting it to compile is somewhat annoying. You should update your GNU build stuff, like automake and autoconf. Compiling the things like they come from gnu.org seems to suffice here. To make the settings manager work, you however need Python 2.5. Best is to fetch and install it from sunfreeware.com, though there seem to be patches already to make it compile correctly on Solaris. On top of that, you need to download and compile PyGTK, PyCairo and PyGObject.
Awesome, nice work! Might be worth publishing the patches that you used to make
it compile?
