I would like to install CAD software again on my laptop. I used to use Rhinoceros 3d and AutoCAD for most stuff, but that was on the Windows side of things.

What can I do for the Solaris side?

  • Not to rain on your idea, but for CAD (however much people try to prove opposite) windows platform is an industry standard.

Have you tried BRLCad? It is listed for Solaris, not sure about OpenSolaris.

EDIT: This thread seems to indicate there is support available for unlisted platforms.

I guess I will end up installing winders through virtualbox. All of these open source CAD software packages are too primitive and wouldn't allow me to do any detailed engineering with them. I am just doing a hobby type of project, but it still has tolerances for parts to function.
