Solaris 8 ssh -X woes

howdy,

I have a couple of headless Solaris 8 servers i can access via ssh for basic periodic patching.

I would like to use the X server to access some of the apps that reside there also, but when i start X it errors out, complaining it can't find /dev/fb.

Is there a way to bypass the /dev/fb issue, since it seems to be looking for a monitor specific file (i think)?
