graphics card, you must install the respective software patch(es):
Solaris 2.5.1 Hardware:11/97 - Patch 105789-01 is automatically installed when
the Elite3D UPA graphics card software is installed. It is recommend that software
patch 105791-05 (or a more current version of the patch, if available) also be
installed.
Solaris 2.6 5/98 - After installing the Elite 3D UPA graphics card, software patch
105363-06 (or a more current version of the patch, if available) should be installed.
These patches are available in accordance with "PGX24-Support Software Patches
for Earlier Solaris Releases" on page en-25, or through the SunSolve Online website

Enterprise Service.
Caution – Use proper ESD grounding techniques when handling components. Wear
an antistatic wrist strap and use an ESD-protected mat. Store ESD-sensitive
components in antistatic bags before placing them on any surface.
1. Power off the system, remove the cover, and attach an antistatic wrist strap as
described in "Preparing for Installation" on page en-28.
2. Lay the system on its side as shown.
3. Remove the screw and slide out the graphics card filler panel from the chassis
back panel.
4. Position the UPA graphics card into the chassis.
5. Guide the UPA graphics card back panel into the chassis back panel.
6. Push the UPA graphics card connector so that it touches its associated UPA card
connector on the motherboard.
Caution – Avoid damaging the connector by not applying force to one end or one
side of the board.
Note – The UPA graphics card connector is a double-row connector that requires
two levels of insertion. When installing the graphics card, ensure that the connector
is fully seated into the slot.
