To determine if you have a graphics card.
run prtdiag
/usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/prtdiag -v | grep xvr
/usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/prtdiag -v | grep pgx (older type of graphics card)
or
as root run eeprom
eeprom | grep output
if output-device = screen high chance there's a craphics card in the box
if outout-device = ttya it's probably connected to a serial device like maybe a wyse or dumb terminal
