I have cc'ed xwin-discuss, where the engineers who work on Xorg and the drivers are found.

On the OpenSolaris LiveCD we only ship the current intel driver, not the older i810 driver (the driver was renamed for it's 2.0 release since it now supports many more chipsets than just the 810), and Xorg server 1.3 (the release between X11R7.2 & 7.3). You can try forcing the VESA driver, using the instructions at: http://blogs.sun.com/sch/entry/indiana_vesa_if_you_need Otherwise, the people who work on drivers and configuration can probably help you best if you provide a copy of the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith at sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering
