The box is sparc based and has an internal video card. When i boot it up, i receive an X server error and, while checking /var/dt/Xerrors, the following message is displayed Code: Fatal server error: InitOutput: Error loading module for /dev/fb XIO: fatal IO error 146 (Connection Refused) on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. error (pid 749): Server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly 1 The loadable module for the display device SUNWnfb is not installed. I've checked for the SUNWnfb package and it is indeed installed on the system. Are they any ideas on how to fix this problem? ---------- Post updated at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous update was at 04:14 PM ---------- Also, when i do a ls -l on /dev/fb this is the output: Code: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 42 Feb 10 22:43 /dev/fb -> /devices/pic@1f,700000,XVR-300@0:nfb0 Last edited by Scott; 02-10-2011 at 06:40 PM..
