So far I know there's some commands available to detect the system

graphics card but don't know if it's nForce or something else. How do I
know it?
/usr/X11/bin/scanpci
Hi, Alan,

I got no clue from the output below.
-bash-3.00# /usr/X11/bin/scanpci|grep nVidia

Are you sure you have an nVidia graphics card?   Did you look through the
other devices reported by scanpci?

You can also look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see what device the Xserver
found and what driver it chose to use it, as well as what resolutions it
detected and which it chose to run at.

That's version 1.0-9755. Well, I just tried but it only support
[EMAIL PROTECTED] on my box. The driver comes with SXDE 55b is version
1.0-9629 but it supports [EMAIL PROTECTED], which should be 85Hz in my case.
Do you know if Sun has some patch on the version 1.0-9629?

No - Sun cannot patch nvidia's drivers.   I wonder if you have one of the
legacy card models they dropped support for in the later revs.
