There are later test releases available from http://genunix.org/ , but 2009.06 was the last stable release before the OpenSolaris distro was terminated. > Yes, booting with the VESA driver brought up the GUI!

No, you need to use the Solaris version of the nvidia driver, since the Solaris & Linux kernels are very very different.

You can download newer versions from: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html and install following the instructions on: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+x_win/NvidiaInstallation -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Platform Engineering: X Window System _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
