fbconfig -prconf outputs the following

Not a Configurable device.

all the systems were loaded from the same image this is the only one not working?

i did a fbconfig -list on a working system th config program is SUNWnfb_config on the non working system it says not configurable. so i did a package info and the drivers are there for the video?

Yes the driver is for video.
There is no device /dev/fb So the system can not configure it!

You install the system from a image not step by step ?
maybe there is an other graphic interface installed as on the other boxes?

all of them have the same graphics card. prtdiag -v
all have the same drivers installed as well

all 4 clients have the same hardware and software.

yes the clients were created from a image and loaded via jumpstart.

ls -ltr /dev/fb
on the box with the problem and on one without a problem!
Is this device available at the other solaris boxes?

boot -r to ensure that the system knows this device!

At the OK prompt:
On both boxes:
show-displays
