The only thing I can think of is pkgrecv ing the solaris driver from the
Solaris 10 install and using that as compat solution.
The errors shown are just lightdm complaining we are using consolekit
and not systemd. Which we wont use so it will keep complaining.
Your 6600 card seems a bit picky. Can you check X.org logs and see what
it reports? Also please check /var/adm/messages for kernel related
things. Or boot with verbose mode set to on (you can find that in the
bootloader under menu 5 advanced options)
Hope this helps to narrow it down

hello everyone,
i ran into a curious issue with a geforce 6600. since it's not supported by the
shipped nvidia drivers,
i installed version 304.137 as described there:
http://docs.openindiana.org/dev/graphics-stack/#nvidia
the procedure worked fine but the driver didn't although the 6600 is listed
explicitly.
svc:/application/graphical-login/lightdm:default switched to maintenance and
the log showed the
following errors:
** (lightdm:744): WARNING **: 08:30:19.854: Failed to get list of logind seats:

now to the curious part:
i also tried a different way. first i installed the older 173.14.39 and after a
reboot i installed
version 304.137. both not using the method described in the docs but directly
i.e. i just ran the files.
no extra bootenv or anything else. this time it worked at least partially: the
nvidia control center
worked and i had more resolutions to choose from compared to vgatext. however,
i could still not change
the refresh rate which made this endeavor quite pointless.
that's a pity because with solaris 10 and whatever nvidia driver it has, the
card worked just fine. if
there're any secrets to getting the nvidia drivers work properly, i would be
very interested in learning
about them.
thanks in advance for any help
