 I usually work with "olde sollarris 8" on U10 boxen.

 you should be able to download cdimages from sun.com somewhere
and make a "Operating System 1 of 2" CD (you just need the first one)

 boot the machine off that first CD and instead of working thru
the install process, open a shell and _possibly_ you can operate=20
the m64config utility to tune your gfx adapter
 (sorry, I can't verify right now - with bad luck m64config is not
available during install, then soory for the wasted bandwidth...)
