On Solaris 8, when I try to run prstat 30 5 as a background process, the command exits 1-2 seconds after it's initiated instead of the 30 seconds I specified.
It runs fine in interactive mode.

gst-launch-ext
gst-launch-ext-0.8(1) User Commands gst-launch-ext-0.8(1)
NAME
gst-launch-ext-0.8, gst-launch-ext - run a predefined GStreamer pipeline
SYNOPSIS
gst-launch-ext-0.8 filename [filename...] [gst-std-options]
gst-launch-ext filename [filename...] [gst-std-options]
DESCRIPTION
gst-launch-ext-0.8 runs a basic predefined GStreamer pipeline, and prints the name of the pipeline. gst-launch-ext-0.8 is only used as a
quick test to ensure that codecs and GStreamer work properly. gst-launch-ext-0.8 does not handle more advanced features such as synchro-
nization.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by gst-launch-ext-0.8 and gst-launch-ext:
gst-std-options Standard options available for use with most GStreamer applications. See gst-std-options(5) for more
information.
The following options are supported by gst-launch-ext only:
--gst-list-mm List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.
--gst-mm=string Force major/minor version. This option enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
default version.
--print Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
filename The name of the GStreamer pipeline to run.
EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
gst-launch-ext-0.8 can be configured by creating a .gst file in your home directory. This PERL-style configuration file can override the
default values for audio and video output sinks.
The following example .gst file implements the same defaults as those hard-coded in the script:
AUDIOSINK = osssink
VIDEOSINK = ffmpegcolorspace ! xvimagesink
You can change osssink to esdsink, alsasink, or sunaudiosink, and you can change xvimagesink to ximagesink, aasink, or sdlvideosink. You
must have the appropriate plugin installed on the system to use the specified output sink. Other GStreamer plug-ins can also be used.
EXAMPLES

The following exit values are returned:
0 Application exited successfully
