How to change resolution for solaris 8?

2007-12-24 21:27:00

Hi Gurus,

I just installed solaris 8 1/01 on a SunBlade 100 and
the screen resolution is not properly set. I was told
to use "kdmconfig" to change resolution, but there is
no kdmconfig on my system (I did a "find . -print |
grep kdmconfig" under /).

Another problem is that colors are not always
displayed properly. Fore example, Netscape seems ok
but when launching admintool, I get a lot of errors
such as 'Warning: Cannot allocate colormap entry for
"gray"' and 'Warning: Cannot parse default background
color specification.' This happens on other software,
esp. acroread, as well. The effect of this is that the
apps often appear in B&W, sometimes even white on
white. Once acroread runs at the foreground,
background becomes fuzzy.

The third problem is that the printer always prints
three pages of heading before any printing job. I
setup my network printer as follows.
Printer type: PostScript
File contents: PostScript
Fault Notification: Write to Superuser
Destination: name.com
Protocol: BSD
Options: Default Printer is checked
User Access List: all

Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sam
