Re: Sun Blade 2500 + XVR-1200



Hi Angus, i have a Blade 1500 silver with a XVR 1200 Card and as far as i know there is no no X Driver for this Card.
In  Open BSD is a Xenocara driver included (reverse engineered) and - off course -  in Solaris 10 the original Sun driver. As far as i know these two are the only Systems with GUI on a XVR 1200.
