Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers SunBlade 150 can't start openwin: /usr/openwin/bin/xinit: Server error. Post 303036909 by MadeInGermany on Wednesday 17th of July 2019 02:13:18 AM

Sun's Xserver needs keyboard and mouse connected - otherwise it does not start.
Also the correct graphics driver must be installed. That means it should be included in the imstall image. (If not, install a later OS - the later the OS, the more drivers are included. Solaris 9 or 10 should have it.)
You can install the OS without an Xserver:
Code:
boot cdrom - nowin

and install the graphics driver later.
(BTW the generic graphics drivers are bad - after installation should be updated/patched.)

NAME
QGfxDriverPlugin - Abstract base for Qt/Embedded graphics driver plugins SYNOPSIS
#include <qgfxdriverplugin_qws.h> Public Members QGfxDriverPlugin () ~QGfxDriverPlugin () virtual QStringList keys () const = 0 virtual QScreen * create ( const QString & driver, int displayId ) = 0 DESCRIPTION
The QGfxDriverPlugin class provides an abstract base for Qt/Embedded graphics driver plugins. The graphics driver plugin is a simple plugin interface that makes it easy to create custom graphics drivers. Writing a graphics driver plugin is achieved by subclassing this base class, reimplementing the pure virtual functions keys() and create(), and exporting the class with the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN macro. See the Plugins documentation for details. This class is only available in Qt/Embedded. See also Plugins. MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
QGfxDriverPlugin::QGfxDriverPlugin () Constructs a graphics driver plugin. This is invoked automatically by the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN macro. QGfxDriverPlugin::~QGfxDriverPlugin () Destroys the graphics driver plugin. You never have to call this explicitly. Qt destroys a plugin automatically when it is no longer used. QScreen * QGfxDriverPlugin::create ( const QString & driver, int displayId ) [pure virtual] Creates a driver matching the type specified by driver, that will use display displayId. See also keys(). QStringList QGfxDriverPlugin::keys () const [pure virtual] Returns the list of graphics drivers this plugin supports. See also create(). SEE ALSO
