Computer Specs: Inspiron 1520 Laptop: Intel Core 2 Duo T5250 (1.5GHz/667Mhz FSB/2MB cache) 128MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS Running Solaris 10
I went to NVIDIA's website and downloaded and installed the driver for my graphics card here - http://www.nvidia.com/object/solaris_display_177.82.html I ran nvidia-xconfig and it created a new xorg config file. However, when I reboot my labtop it says X-Server can not be started on display :0 with following error report - SUNWxorg-graphics-ddx package version: 6.8.0.5.10.7400,REV=0.2004.12.15 SUNWxorg-graphics-ddx patches applied: 125720-10 SUNWxorg-mesa package version: 6.8.2.5.10.0113,REV=0.2005.08.02 SUNWxorg-mesa patches applied: 125720-10 125724-01 Before reporting problems, check http://sunsolve.sun.com/ to make sure that you have the latest version.

And here's the xorg.conf file. I'm a total Solaris noob so help is GREATLY appreciated. # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig # nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (@builder55) Tue Nov 4 13:53:31 PST 2008 Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout0" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" EndSection Section "Files" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/sun/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps/" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "extmod" Load "type1" Load "glx" Load "xtsol" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "keyboard" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Unknown" HorizSync 30.0 - 110.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 150.0 Option "DPMS" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
