How to run SUN Solaris application under Linux PC?

[arthur]

Is there an emulator for Linux which allow to run UNIX applications.
There is lxrun on Solaris for running Linux binaries under Solaris. Please tell me, if you do find such a apps.

You can run a lot of Solaris (SPARC) binaries using SPARCLinux compatibility mode (using a SPARC box, of course). Using lxrun you can run Linux (X86) binaries under Solaris running on X86 arch. As far as I know, there is no way to run Solaris (SPARC) binaries on Linux (X86 arch) and I'm sure that never there will be something like that. And running Solaris X86 apps under Linux X86 is really useless :smile:

Yes, Chinasky said is really correct.
So, if you got the Sparc Solaris software, then you can run it on Sparc Solaris.
