Intel 945GM graphics support was added to the i810 Xorg driver
after the 6.9/7.0 release, and we have not yet pulled it into
our official Solaris packages. I don't know why the VESA
driver wouldn't work - that would require someone with both
access to the hardware and far more knowledge of graphics hardware
than I - file a bug on bugs.opensolaris.org and one of our graphics
driver gurus can look at it.
