Installing video driver for Solaris 9 on Dell Dimension 2300
807559Oct 15 2006 — edited Oct 16 2006I am not able to install the video driver properly for solaris 9....currently only using console cannot start X window
My old Dell dimension 2300 1.8Ghz CPU has only 128MB so I installed the older solaris 9 instead of solaris 10.It uses the intel integrated extreme graphics intel i845G chipset I think....cannot find a suitable video driver in the list.
In the kdmconfig program, tried using the generic VESA driver and the XFree86 VESA driver and the XFree86 Intel i810 driver, still cannot get it to work
I either get a black screen or a black screen with white dots on it or the something like the following and hangs
"Couldn,t probe screen #0 .....
Fatal Server Error.....
XIO fatal IO error 146(Connection refused on X Server)....."
What driver should I use for intel i845G????It's not listed on the list??
