X-server problem on Solaris 10
Hi,

On my Sun Ultra 45, display was flickering. After changing PCI slot of graphic card (XVR-300), display stablized, but, now X-server not starting. I am getting following messages

Code:
The X-server can not be started on display : 0...
See file/var/dt/Xerrors for details.

the output of Xerrors is:
Code:
error(pid 757): Server for display : 0 terminated unexpectedly 1
/dev/fb0: No such file or directory
/dev/fb0: No such file or directory
Graphic Adapter device /dev/fb0 is of unknown type

Fatal server error:
InputOutput: Error loading module for /dev/fb0

XIO: fatal IO error 146 (Connection refused) on X server ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.


Please help

Hello,
may be the SUNWdfb package is removed (see docs.oracle.com).

Try a "reconfigure" boot to let the OS know that you moved the card...

Code:
init 0
boot -r

or
Code:
reboot -- -r

DukeNuke2, I did try, reconfigure, but it did not work. Penguin99, when i reverted graphic card to its original pci slot, Xserver started working ok. Just want to know, how to make OS understand change of slot and start Xserver on new slot.

I even edited Xserver config file from fb0 to fb1, but it did not work.

Thanks for reply

Code:
fbconfig -list

Code:
/dev/fbs/nfb0 not configurable
/dev/fbs/nfb0a not configurable
/dev/fbs/nfb0b not configurable
/dev/fbs/ifb0 not configurable
/dev/fbs/nfb1 SUNWnfb_config
/dev/fbs/nfb1a SUNWnfb_config
/dev/fbs/nfb1b SUNWnfb_config

You can now check the current configuration with fbconfig -prconf and change the device to the changed settings...
