Hi!

OK. So my machine boots again... but "nvidia" driver still broken on
X11.

I want to replace it with the one from nvidia's site.

Unfortunately when I try to install it and it tries to remove the
Solaris one, I get a "Removal of <NVDAgraphics> failed (internal
error)."

Even if I manually try to pkgrm (as root) that package.

Well, the package wasn't installed with pkgadd, so... =O(

Remove it first with pkg?  I'm not upgrading my Ultra20 until you've got
this sorted... ;O)

Ta,
It's sorted.

I had to "svcadm disable gdm" before removing the package and adding the NVIDIA drivers... and then svcadm enable gdm again (bunch of error messages - no gdm start) then reboot... I've no got full NVIDIA accel on my M2 again. Cool!

Gilles.
