I have compared the Xorg.0.log files between the working version and the upgrade. I have a GeForce 6100 GPU and both startups find it but snv_101b configures differently. The snv_101b tries to load nvda but does not find it and it also loads the nv driver before the nvidia driver. After the nvidia driver finds the GPU, the nv driver is unloaded. It seems like I had trouble getting the standard Solaris version to run when it loaded the nv driver and then SolarisExpress worked but it used the nvidia driver. I would like to see what happens if it did not load the nv driver at all. I have a couple of questions.
1) Can I add an xorg.conf file to force the system to configure a specific way? To test the idea I created a file on my snv_86a version, but I still get the "Unable to locate/open config file" log entry. 2) I am not sure I want to go to a legacy driver. How can I determine the version of the nvidia driver I have in the working version? 3) Can I easily configure snv_101b to use the same driver as I am using now?
