Can't use Java Desktop System

I've installed Solaris 10 u2 x86 and after having fought with setting up X for a month. I've now managed to get X to start on my 1920x1200 Dell monitor.

The problem is when I chose Java Desktop System, Release 3 as the session I just get kicked back to the login display.

Can someone tell me where I am supposed to look to see what's wrong?

I can login using CDE, but who want's to use that when JDS is around!

Since I stumbled onto the solution I'm sharing it here.

I logged into CDE and tried to get a web browser going, but nothing happened when clicked on the web browser icon.

Then I tried running mozilla from a terminal, but it complained about missing library libmlib.so.2. A quick search on google brought me back to these forums and a post saying "Missing libmlib.so.2 - GDM won't start".

I put the solaris 10 dvd into the cdrom and added the SUNWmlib package.

Now JDS is working
