16 SMCC Release Notes Supplement Solaris 2.6 • September 1997
Graphics — Threads Created by the leo driver
Do Not Adhere to cpr Callback Protocol
(4052466)
Systems with the ZX graphics device (/dev/fbs/leo
X
) cannot be suspended. The
device cannot be idled successfully, and therefore prevents the Power Management
software from suspending the system.
Graphics — Screen Can Fail to Return From
Screensaver Mode (4062599)
Some systems with a CG6 framebuffer can fail to return from screensaver mode,
leaving the screen blank and apparently unresponsive to typing and mouse
movements.
You can determine whether or not you have a model CG6 framebuffer by typing:
Workaround: If this bug occurs, rlogin to the failing system and shut down your
system to save your files. A reboot is required to make the screen operational.
However, it is recommended that you perform a controlled reboot rather than
pressing L1-A.
If you have a CG6 framebuffer and want to prevent this bug from re-occurring,
choose any screen pattern other than blank screen for lockscreen.
SunVideo — Documentation Errata
The SunVideo User’s Guide is inaccurate due to changes in the path locations for some
of the SunVideo packages in this Solaris release. If you are using SunVideo, take note
of the new path locations for these packages.
