Solaris latest CPU patch graphics/gui issue

We just installed the latest Oracle Solaris 10 Sparc 64-Bit CPU patch (10/2012) and we are no longer able to access the GUI or the console after the OBP. We believe that this is a graphics issue. It has affected out t2000 xvr-200 graphics server and also out v440 xvr-100 graphics server.

We are still able to login remotely via ssh/telnet but we cannot login directly via the console or through the gui (monitor or kvm).

On the T2000 we are getting a white screen with black distorted lines and on the v440 we are getting an error 'The X-Server can not be started on display:0'.

We have tried to rollback and remove patches that has anything this to do with graphics. We have added packages and rm packages. We have tried to install the original xvr -x00 graphics disc that came with the servers but no luck. We have also contacted Oracle support and they have had us install a few packages and patches but still no luck. We have tried to adust the framebuffer with just about every resolution possible. We have also tried to disable the dtprofile to see if it will go straight to the console.

If there are any suggestions, please feel free to chime in. Also, if anyone has patched a t2000 or v440 , v880, or v120 with th latest CPU patchset (10/2012). Let me know if you are able to access the oracle solaris login gui or the console. Smilie

STG-REFRESH(1)							   StGit Manual 						    STG-REFRESH(1)

NAME
stg-refresh - Generate a new commit for the current patch SYNOPSIS
stg refresh [options] [<files or dirs>] DESCRIPTION
Include the latest work tree and index changes in the current patch. This command generates a new git commit object for the patch; the old commit is no longer visible. You may optionally list one or more files or directories relative to the current working directory; if you do, only matching files will be updated. Behind the scenes, stg refresh first creates a new temporary patch with your updates, and then merges that patch into the patch you asked to have refreshed. If you asked to refresh a patch other than the topmost patch, there can be conflicts; in that case, the temporary patch will be left for you to take care of, for example with stg squash. The creation of the temporary patch is recorded in a separate entry in the patch stack log; this means that one undo step will undo the merge between the other patch and the temp patch, and two undo steps will additionally get rid of the temp patch. OPTIONS
-u, --update Only update the current patch files. -i, --index Instead of setting the patch top to the current contents of the worktree, set it to the current contents of the index. -p PATCH, --patch PATCH Refresh (applied) PATCH instead of the top patch. -e, --edit Invoke an editor for the patch description. -a NOTE, --annotate NOTE Annotate the patch log entry. -m MESSAGE, --message MESSAGE Use MESSAGE instead of invoking the editor. -f FILE, --file FILE Use the contents of FILE instead of invoking the editor. (If FILE is "-", write to stdout.) --sign Add a "Signed-off-by:" to the end of the patch. --ack Add an "Acked-by:" line to the end of the patch. --author "NAME <EMAIL>" Set the author details. --authname NAME Set the author name. --authemail EMAIL Set the author email. --authdate DATE Set the author date.
