OT: Solaris 8 on TP 760EL

      Apologies, I know this isn't really ClassicCMP related, but I'm
hopeful that some of the Solaris admins here can help me out...

        I installed Solaris 8 2/02 on my Thinkpad 760EL. I chose the
deafault
end-user collection, plus the freeware file compression utilities...
        Now, when I start it up, or reboot it, the GUI is fine. But when
I only logout, though, I get a bunch of vertical lines across the
screen. I
also get the lines when I select "Remote Login" from the Option menu on
the login screen. Seems like something to do with the display manager
restarting.
        I downloaded and added the XF86 packages from Sun (which
included 2
patches), but those drivers were no help. I even found and tried a
different .xqa driver description. No go.

        Anybody have any ideas? Feel free to respond to me directly...
