Does that mean one could, say, install Solaris 9 on a system with
a GeForce 4 in it (or something else that a sorta-recent XFree86
release runs on) and have it "just work", preferably through the
normal kdmconfig way? Or is there still extra hassle involved
in making things work?

The reason I'm asking is that I have this great dual-processor
Athlon system that would love to have Solaris on it. (Well,
if I could ever figure out why the time-of-day stuff seems
so screwed up -- the Solaris install complains that the battery
may be dead (which it's not), and then when it gets to the
point where I should set the date, it just goes into a loop
where it beeps constantly.)
