Please, take a break and chill out. Everyone who has a SPARC graphics workstation HAS a decent version of Solaris to run on it - just not the latest one. If you need an indication why its not important to have graphics for SPARC then take a look at the price of an ATX mobo with onboard nVidia 7k series graphics, and add a low end quad code chip and 4G of RAM. And then ask yourself how noisy it is next to a SPARC system with enough grunt that you might want to use it. SPARC workstations are irrelevant. SPARC servers are not. You can't blame Sun for bowing to reality. Please, take a good look at how your spending your time with your SPARC OpenSolaris. I'd personally be really pleased to have it - for my 420Rs and 280Rs. But don't flog the dead horse of graphics - just make sure that VNC or FreeNX works well out of the box. The number of people who will ever care about your graphics project is small *and getting smaller with time*. Are you sure its worth the effort? I know its hard to give up on personal projects and accept that all the old effort and expense will never come to anything - I'm sympathetic with that, at least. But please, try to move on. If you can get FreeNX working really well on Solaris (SPARC and others), more people will use your stuff. James
