I'm trying to replace openindiana 151-a8 nvidia driver with 
NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-173.14.38.run (to have Nvidia FX5200 support)


oi-151a8 failed uninstalling driver/graphics/nvidia

# LC_ALL=C pkg uninstall driver/graphics/nvidia
Creating Plan
pkg uninstall: Cannot remove 
'pkg://openindiana.org/driver/graphics/nvidia@0.319.17,5.11-0.151.1.8.1:20130825T181904Z'
 due to the following packages that depend on it:
pkg://openindiana.org/x11/server/xorg/driver/xorg-video@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.8:20130305T151745Z

It looks like a wrong dependancy : nvidia needs xorg but xorg doesn't need 
nvidia.

A tried the following dirty workaround :

Extract package file :

# sh NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-173.14.38.run -x

then

# pkgadd -d NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-173.14.38

The following packages are available:
1 NVDAgraphics NVIDIA Graphics System Software
(i386) 173.14.38,REV=2013.08.28.15.05
2 NVDAgraphicsr NVIDIA Graphics System Device Driver
(i386) 173.14.38,REV=2013.08.28.15.05

Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process
all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]: 

It overides driver files and works with some warning ...
