Which version are you after? Presumably Solaris 8? I can do that.

I use a radeon 8500 here. You have to manually install the drivers over the
top of your X 4.2 setup, and redo whenever your package system upgrades X,
but the drivers work really well now for me - despite the fact that they're still 
under constant development. Drivers are at http://dri.sf.net

(Athlon 2000XP, MSI KT3 mobo, ATI Radeon 8500 64M @ 4x AGP, kernel 2.4.20,
X compiled by hand from the DRI sources)

Cheers,
J.
