Ed, If you can't get it to work, there are reported issues with certain GT220 cards (bad hardware batches, like the Intel Sandy Bridge incident).
Nvidia is aware of this issue. So, you can replace the GT220 card with the GT430 or GeForce 9600 GT to resolve your issue. ~ Ken Mays --- On Tue, 2/15/11, Edward M <mindbende...@live.com> wrote: > From: Edward M <mindbende...@live.com> > Subject: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] GPU HCL - nVidia Questions & Advice > To: openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org > Date: Tuesday, February 15, 2011, 1:16 PM > On 02/14/11 17:54, Ken Gunderson > wrote: > > On Mon, 2011-02-14 at 16:48 -0800, Edward Martinez > wrote: > >> > >>> Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 11:41:29 +0000 > >>> From: guy.wool...@btinternet.com > >>> To: openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org > >>> Subject: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] GPU HCL - > nVidia Questions& Advice > >>> > >>> You just need to look at > /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change "vesa" to "nv" > >>> - that should do it.
