I have taken a look at the spec file, and I guess I don't understand 
it.  It looks
like a specification for building the linux Xorg (xdrv) package for Solaris.
How is this supposed to work without kernel support?  Or am I missing 
something?
I have been in touch with the x_win community, and am looking at 
tamarack now.

thanks much,
max
