I know SX:CE build 58 still isn't out yet, but when it is, you'll
probably want to know about some of these issues found by internal
testers in the week we've had it so far:

-6520551 nvidia driver doesn't work with 64-bit Xorg

  This was reported in the original heads up, along with the workaround,
  so is listed here just as a reminder.

  Workarounds:  Use svccfg to force use of 32-bit Xorg.

  (We're working with nvidia to get a 64-bit nvidia driver update out
   soon.)

-6520998 64-bit Xephyr crashes on startup

  Fixed in nv_59.   Workaround: On x86, use /usr/X11/bin/i386/Xephyr.
   (No SPARC workaround available.)

-6525733 Xorg 7.2 crashes on startup when Xtsol module is present

  Fixed in nv_60.   Workaround: Use Xsun if you need a Trusted
  multi-level desktop.

-6525243 Nevada B58 32-bit Xorg crashes on a VMware VM

  Fixed in nv_60.   Workaround: Use text console mode for OS install,
  then use 64-bit Xorg with VMWare driver or 32-bit Xorg with VESA.

-6525842 select UTF-8 locale,Xorg can't start up on snv_b58

  Fixed in nv_60.   Workaround: pkgrm SUNWtxfnt (assuming you don't
  need Thai characters.)

-6526932 shift key press is buffered by kernel driver and not sent to X 
immediately

  Not actually an X bug, but affects X operations such as shift-clicking.
  Workaround:  When you need to shift click, press and hold down one shift
  key, then press and release the other shift key, then click the mouse.
