Woohoo!  Xorg is working!  Thanks, guys.  If it weren't for the missing DPS,
I'd say Xorg was _totally_ cool.  As it is, it's got tons of stuff; just tried
xrandr; being able to change resolutions on the fly in X is cool.

Next problem, repeated crashes, all quite similar.  Cursory check of sunsolve
didn't find them, although I could've easily missed it.  Backtraces from
/var/adm/messages attached.  Looks like fcntl (locking?), all happening over
NFS, ultimately leading to a NULL pointer dereference within the kernel, 
possibly
by strchr().  Given that gnome-panel is one of the programs doing this, I can't
use other than CDE (to find out what the Gnome desktop is like on something
decently fast), at least as long as my home directory is NFS mounted (if indeed
that's a factor).

Regarding various device support, I've seen mention of things being looked at or
worked on, but never all in one place.  Sure would be great if there were 
somewhere
a summary of everything ok for public discussion where the status (under 
consideration,
under development, etc) was maintained and updated, all in one place.  It would 
make
living near the bleeding edge a bit more of an orderly experience, I think, to 
have that
status info in one place, to include pointers to experimental drivers that have 
been
released (including contributed ones, at least those participating explicitly 
in OpenSolaris,
so that it's not too many).  While that would particularly be of interest for 
laptop users,
it probably would be helpful to a lot more than just them.
