The BETA server can be found at:

files:

     README.Solaris.x86_64
     xsvc-4.0-2.x86_64.pkg.gz
     Summit_WX-Silver-Matrox-BETA64-2.4-b1.x86_64.pkg.gz

The following is a snippet from the README.Solaris.x86_64 file:

Beta Release

        xsvc-4.0-2.x86_64.pkg.gz
        Summit_WX-Silver-Matrox-BETA64-2.4-b1.x86_64.pkg.gz

        This package contains beta AMD64/x86_64 support for various
        Matrox cards for use with Solaris 10 running on Intel EM64T or
        AMD Opteron/Athlon64 systems running in 64bit mode.

Supported cards include:

        Matrox Millennium G450
        Matrox Millennium G550
        Matrox Millennium P650
        Matrox Millennium P750
        Matrox Parhelia 128/256
        Matrox Parhelia HR256
        Matrox Parhelia Precision SGT
        Matrox Parhelia QID
        Matrox Parhelia QID Pro

        xsvc version 4.0-2 or better is required to use this server,
        and is included in the same directory that this package is
        located in.  Do not use xsvc 3.x - it will not work with 64
        bit kernels, or this package.

        It is assumed that you have some experience with installing
        and configuring Accelerated-X.  If not, please see the
        following files for information on the general process of
        installing and configuring Accelerated-X.

        ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/README.xsvc
        ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/SummitManual.pdf
        ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/README.Summit

Basically:

        - disable any graphical login managers (/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d)
        - install the xsvc package, and reboot (with graphical logins
          still disabled).
        - Install the Summit package
        - run Xsetup and configure your card, monitor, mouse and
          keyboard
        - test the server 'Xaccel'. Use CTL-ALT-BS to exit.
        - re-enable graphical logins (/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -e)

        A demo license is supplied which will cause the server to
        terminate after about 25 minutes.

        If you need more time to evaluate the server, please contact
        sales@xxxxxxx and request an Evaluation license.  If you wish
        to purchase a license, please go to:

http://www.xig.com/Pages/Summit/ORDERING/Ordering-OlineFormGet.html

        Please report any feedback on this driver (good or bad) to
        support@xxxxxxxx  If you are reporting a problem, please
        include Xsupport output
        (/usr/openwin/lib/AcceleratedX/bin/Xsupport).

        Note: OpenGL is not yet supported.  Linux is also not yet
        supported.  This package only works on Solaris 10 GA and GA
        U1.

Thank you for choosing Accelerated X!
