I was just wondering how to extract a bz2 file in MS Windows. I downloaded the file in FreeBSD and used bunzip2 to extract it but what would one use in MS Windows? Anyway, it worked fine on my home computer but I don't know enough about Solaris to configure it to connect over my dsl line. It did let me easily change my desktop resolution and seems like a nice step forward for opensolaris.
