Full Discussion: Xserver won't come up on Solaris 8
Operating Systems Solaris Xserver won't come up on Solaris 8 Post 46183 by RTM on Friday 9th of January 2004 05:42:26 PM
Old 01-09-2004
From Sunsolve:

After installing Solaris[TM] 2.6 on an Ultra[TM] 10 with an m64 graphics card
and rebooting, the following error message was displayed:

X-server cannot be started on display :0

Trying to start OpenWindows failed with the messages:

9 SUNWxxxxx bad class

instance, line 163 in
/usr/openwin/server/etc/owconfig
Resolution Top

* Check to see what graphics card are installed by using the
following command:

# prtconf -F

* Check the device driver packages for the graphics card.

# pkginfo -l SUNW_package_name

* If possible, get a copy of the /usr/openwin/server/etc/owconfig from
another Ultra 10 with the same graphic card.

The possible error message:

frame buffer , it was not defined in the file.

may be caused by the fact that the /usr/openwin/server/etc/OWconfig file
was copied from another Ultra that did not contain entries for the m64
framebuffer because the Ultra 10 did not have the framebuffer.
