X Server configuration

I have installed Intel Solaris on my PC, but cannot seem to get the X Server to start. Everytime I use kdmconfig to configure it the system locks up.

I have and ATI All-in-Wonder card with a Rage 128 chipset (which appears to be supported), and an ADI ProVista monitor for which I can find suitable resolution and sync. frequency.

For some settings I see a message that says that the server could not be started, but no further information. Generally it just locks though.

Can anyone help?

Have you downloaded and installed the latest video drivers from sunsolve.sun.com?
