Ramblings of an Ordinary Joe Joe Di Pol's Blog

I recently got a new Sun 22" Widescreen LCD monitor to use on my trusty desktop: a SunBlade 1500 with an XVR-100 graphics card runing Solaris 10u4.

Initially I could not get the system to run at the 1680x1050 native resolution of the monitor due to Solaris bug 6362624. Apparently this is fixed in patch 118717 although I ended up using the work-around from the bug report (add an entry to /etc/openwin/server/etc/OWconfig and run fbconfig). This worked great and I'm now running at 1680x1050.
