Tom:

Do your problems involve PGX framebuffers and the machine blanking the 
video, then refusing to wake up?  There is a patch for Sol 10 and PGX 
framebuffers that resolves this problem.  I don't have the number handy, but 
I found it a while back when I put Sol 10 on a Cycle Quad.

HTH,
Martin Marshall
