Frank and Danek:
When I did text installer testing with x86, the nvidia driver cannot be
installed on a live system. It must be installed with the -R option.
If you look at the Text Installer release notes, we tell user to do this
with beadm as follow:
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+caiman/Text+Install+b134+Notes
* Use the pkg(1) command to add additional packages after
installing. The following commands will add all packages that are
included by default on the liveCD, including GDM:
o pfexec beadm create <be-name>
o pfexec beadm mount <be-name> /mnt
o pfexec pkg -R /mnt install babel_install
o pfexec pkg -R /mnt uninstall babel_install slim_install
o pfexec bootadm update-archive -R /mnt
o pfexec beadm umount <be-name>
o pfexec beadm activate <be-name>
* Reboot the system to enter the new boot environment.
* Enable the GDM service: pfexec svcadm enable gdm
I think Frank should use beadm to crate a be and mount it, and then
follow the above instructions. Once you got gdm working, then you can
install the other gnome packages if they had not been installed already.

What does
pkg verify nvidia xdt
tell you? The two packages install into a minimal image for me without any
issues. Can you reproduce?
pkg image-create -F -p http://ipkg.sfbay/dev /tmp/image
pkg -R /tmp/image install SUNWcsd SUNWcs
pkg -R /tmp/image install nvidia xdt
