Hi I've just installed Solaris Express 12/06 on a Sun Ultra 5. The installation went fine, but now I've got 8 bit colours in X.
I've tried Solaris before on an Ultra 10 and last time I had to run m64config to change the colours, but this time it wouldn't work, instead I got this error: [b]# m64config -res 1152x900x66 nocheck try -depth 24 m64config: About to change resolution to 1152x900x66 for 10 seconds m64config: Continue (yes/no) ? y m64config: ioctl 'M64_SETVIDEOMODE': Invalid argument, reason=1 m64config: cannot set video mode! m64config: ioctl 'M64_SETVIDEOMODE': Invalid argument, reason=1 m64config: cannot set video mode! #[/b] I tried with different resolutions and options, and sometimes it works, but I can only get a blank screen with a cursor. A friend of mine suggested that I should buy a new graphics card, but this worked on an Ultra 10, so it should be possible to get 24 bits colour on an Ultra 5, right? Any ideas?
