Dennis/Ian,

How I suggest handling these requests for assistance is to go ahead
and reply to requests for help if you feel you can help, while ccing
opensolaris-help in your response. I would also say in your response:
"Please remove opensolaris-discuss from the cc list in any further
responses to this thread"

That said, I don't think Wendy will find alot of people with Video
cards in recent model Sparc rackmount servers, so I think it is going
to have to be a bit of trial and error, unless she has a support
contract..

-Brian

P.S. - "Please remove opensolaris-discuss from the cc list in any
further responses to this thread"
