All UltraSPARC CPUs are 64-bit.
The current release of Solaris 11 won't run on an UltraSPARC IIe, but any version of Solaris 10 shoud run just fine - just don't use the JDS desktop, it'll be waaaay too slow. Use CDE instead. Better yet, just disable X Windows logins on the box entirely and SSH/telnet in from a new Linux box or similar and use the remote display.

dmxgetdesktopattributes
DMXDesktopAttributes(3X) DMXDesktopAttributes(3X)
NAME
DMXGetDesktopAttributes - determine global bounding box
SYNOPSIS
#include <X11/extensions/dmxext.h>
Bool DMXGetDesktopAttributes(Display *dpy,
DMXDesktopAttributes *attr);
DESCRIPTION
DMXGetDesktopAttributes() returns information about the desktop in DMXDesktopAttributes:
typedef struct {
unsigned int width;
unsigned int height;
int shiftX;
int shiftY;
} DMXDesktopAttributes;
The size of the global bounding box is given in width, and height. The shiftX and shiftY values will always be 0. The global bounding box
is computed whether or not Xinerama is active, but it is only useful when using Xinerama.
The global bounding box used by Xdmx(1) may be larger than the Xinerama screen size because of information in the configuration file.
RETURN VALUE
DMXGetDesktopAttributes() returns True unless there is a protocol error.
