It is really sad to see and witness what is happening to Sun. I understand it very well when these former Sun employees are resigning one after another. Sun under Oracle is not the Sun we know. It doesn't exist any more. It's gone. Nothing will ever be the way it was before Oracle bought Sun.

As you are using opensolaris build 134, you are running a version of the graphics subsystem which, at boot time, or restart, creates the config from parsing the hardware. You'll find it in /etc/X11 There is a file named .xorg.conf (note the . at the beginning!) If you copy those to xorg.conf
