Solaris 10 Install - 10/09 version - screen resolution

Hi guys:
I just installed an x86 version of Solaris 10 10/09 onto Lenovo T61. GUI install would not come up, so I used a command line mode. It turned out that Solaris used a greater video resolution than 1024 and my screen does not handle that. What is the reason for an install using resolution greater then 1024, as well being a Solaris default screen resolution? Can that be changed during the install? Is there an issues area for Solaris 10?
Thanks
Leonid

I am not sure what went wrong, but after another non-GUI reinstall - option 4 on the install, my LCD is OK now.
I have also tried option 3 of the install - text desktop, also uses GUI - worked fine as well...

  • Screen Resolution in solaris 10 b69

    Hello
    I have installed solaris 10 (10/04) in VMWARE and on my Toshiba satelite 2410-303 and there is no way to change its screen resolution. It keeps its 640x480 nomatter how many times i have tried to change it with kdmconfig. Keep in mind that i have tried in solaris 9 and in previous versions of solaris 10 express several times with success.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance

    First you have to check whether you're using the Xsun or the Xorg
    X11 server. See file /usr/dt/config/Xservers. I think the default with
    s10 b69 is the Xorg server. You've the option to configure the other
    X11 server by chanhing /usr/dt/config/Xservers.
    With Xsun, you can change the screen resolution using the kdmconfig
    program. For a vmware environment, the XF86-VMWARE driver
    should be used.
    For Xorg, you can create an X11 server config file by running
    /usr/X11/bin/xorgconfig. I'm not a vmware user, but I guess that you
    can select the "vmware" video driver, and configure approriate
    screen resolutions.

  • Screen resolution problem after i-tunes installed on XP pro

    Just purchased 5th Generation 60Gb for my daughters 16th Birthday which starts in about 14 minutes! Loaded the software on her XPpro service pack 2 laptop. When itunes executed the screen resolution drops to 8 bit! It can be changed in control panel and all works fine. but each time re boot itunes and the problem returns!
    Loaded on my desktop and everything fine also. tried the ms config stuff as per site and immediate problem when ms software disabled. Would seem to be a software conflict and compatability problem. The laptop is a fujitsu which is 2 years old. the older version of i-tunes which she downloaded about a year ago worked ok. Sadly we uninstalled it before installing the new version from the disc. Tried update from the site but it indicates the DC version is the latest.
    Interesting to read some of the problems that flks have had with the ipods. This one seems OK but does have a 'do not disconnect logo which hangs up and doesn't go away. However, if I do disconnect the computer 'burps' at me then all is well and forgotten!
    Oh yes. how do you delete unwanted songs once uploaded? Is there a simple 'delete' button?
    Any thoughts anyone as I've now spent all evening on it and it's her birthday in the morning (8th June)
    thanks in anticipation

  • Screen resolution when PXE boot from WDS vs Install Windows 8.1 from USB

    Hi all
    I own a Lenovo ThinkPad T430s, X230 Tablet, and now have my hands on a T440. All three machines have UEFI Secure Boot enabled properly, i.e. Windows boot screen shows Lenovo logo instead of Windows logo.
    However, if I do a PXE boot (using Windows Deployment Services from Windows Server 2012, not R2) and boot to the same boot.wim provided on a Windows 8.1 ISO image, the boot screen resolution turns crap, and the WinPE environment runs in 640x480. Also, as opposed
    to the Lenovo logo showing on the boot screen, the Windows logo shows up instead, indicating it's not doing a secure boot?
    When booting from a USB stick however, using the same Windows 8.1 boot.wim (copied from ISO), the screen resolution in Windows Setup is detected correctly, and the Lenovo logo shows up.
    This occurs on all three machines since MDT was upgraded to MDT 2013 or when I replaced Windows 8 boot.wim with Windows 8.1 boot.wim (as the Windows ADK 8 --> ADK 8.1).
    Is there a fix for this? Do others have the same problem elsewhere?
    Many thanks 

    Hi,
    When boot UEFI-based computer from PXE you should take more into consideration.
    For some computers, you might have to perform additional steps to make sure that Windows is installed in UEFI mode, and not in legacy BIOS-compatibility mode.
    Some computers might support UEFI. However, they do not support a PXE-initiated boot when in UEFI mode.

    Especially for “Pre-Deployment Considerations”
    If you still cannot find a way to make it boot from UEFI mode, you should contact with manufacture to confirm if PXE-initiated boot is supported.
    Hope this helps.

  • Change Screen resolution in solaris

    Hi
    How can I change the screen resolution in either cde/java desktop? I remember setting the resolution to 800*600. But after installation the screen resolution has become 640*480 and everything is big.

    How`s about a little more info ?
    Are you running a SPARC machine or a PC ?
    If you have installed on a PC, simply bring up a terminal window and type : kdmconfig
    A little more involved if installed on a SPARC machine.
    Good luck .................JRH.

    You can force quit by holding the power button down for extended period.
    During boot up hold down the Option key and choose your Macintosh HD OSX.
    In >System Preferences> Startup Disk>choose your internal OSX System as Default.

  • Solaris 10  x86 console screen resolution and blank console after exiting X

    Hello,
    At some point my Solaris 10 machine stopped showing the console after leaving Xorg for the console login. I know the console is active because I can blindly pass the shutdown or other command and it will respond, or after waiting a few minutes will bring the GUI login back. I can see the console before the GUI login while booting but not after. I have a dual output Nvidia 6200 on a 22" LCD running Solaris 10 using the latest Nvidia drivers. I would also like to know if it possible to set the console screen resolution somehow either from the shell or from grub? I have been searching the internet for weeks about this and am unable to find a solution.
    TIA,
    Brett

    After doing even more searching, it looks as if this is an issue with Nvidias drivers. At least similar issues on Linux and FreeBSD that I have seen. Anyone know of a fix other than reverting to much older drivers? Still cannot find any info on setting the console screen resolution, though I can't even see it at the moment unless I refrain from ever starting X again. There has to something similar to vga= that's used in Linux. Anyone?

  • Screen Resolution Issue upon Install

    Howdy,
    I just installed Arch for the first time (after using Ubuntu for a few years) and I'm having a problem. For some reason, it is messing up the screen resolution after rebooting the system. It occurs every time, and the text appears to both wrap around the monitor from the middle and extend beyond the bottom of the screen. The error is reproducable; when I boot up an Ubuntu live-cd, I get the same issue when trying to set my screen resolution to 1280x800. Every mode below that works just fine.
    I tried a bunch of different things with respect to the screen resolution, but no matter what I set "vga=" to, I can't get it to display properly. X will open just fine, but with the same issue. For reference, here are the specs of my computer:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/docu … ct=3686683
    Also, I am using the x86_64 install, though it happened with the i686 one as well.
    Any help is appreciated, and though I will do what I can, it will be hard for me to post anything from arch since I can't see much.
    Thank you in advance

    Are you using any DE? Does it happen even before you install X?

  • Problem with AE CS5 and laptop screen resolution during install..

    Hello everyone,
    I bought AE and I am very disappointed.  When I went to install the  application, I got the following errors and it stopped installing.
    Exit Code: 7
    -------------------------------------- Summary  --------------------------------------
    - 0 fatal error(s), 54 error(s), 52 warning(s)
    WARNING: Display requirements not met for  {DA1B174B-4297-467C-9EF8-0AB8D4D5171E}
    WARNING: Payload cannot be installed due to dependent operation  failure
    My max screen resolution is 1366x768 and the requirement is  1280x1024.
    I don't plan on buying a screen that large.  Is there a fix for  this? perhaps editing the registry? I won't mind the small work area.  I  can manage.  does AE CS4 have this resolution requirement?  I have an  opengl capable graphics card in my laptop so I don't think that is an  issue here. any help would be much appreciated. thanks

    ok I think I was able to bypass the " Display requirements not met for {DA1B174B-4297-467C-9EF8-0AB8D4D5171E}" error during install. I hooked up an exteral monitor with the required resolution and I did not see that error message again.  However, I am still getting the following error messages
    <code>
    WARNING: Payload cannot be installed due to dependent operation failure
    </code>
    could it be that my graphics card does not support opengl? how can I make sure it supports opengl 2.0?
    the graphics card that I have is an integraded intel media graphics accelerator.  I am quite sure it would support opengl2.0. any thoughts? thanks
    My brother has a screen resolution of 1240x780 and yet he was able to install AE CS5 without any errors at all.  He has an ATI mobility Raedon Graphics card.  whats up with that? also, he cannot hear any sound from avi videos in AE.  He has tried everything even raising the decibals level in the track.
