Hello,

Welcome to the forum ! We hope you find this to be a friendly and helpful place, and that you enjoy your time here.

Unfortunately I think you might be out of luck with this one. Whilst I cannot get a definitive list of the supported Intel integrated GPUs for the "xorg-video-intel" driver package from Oracle, the Illumos version of the package (Illumos is the open-source version of Solaris, more or less) lists a variety of specific GPUs, and the UHD 630 isn't on that list. Furthermore, documentation for the Illumos package states:

And I think the UHD 630 is an 8th gen. device. So unfortunately, it would seem that neither Oracle Solaris nor any Illumos distro support running X11 on this particular GPU at this time. Even many Linux distributions struggled with this one until quite recently, it would seem.

Sorry I couldn't give you a better answer here, but if either myself or one of our other contributors does find anything that would help, we'll let you know. But for now, unless there's a way for you to use a different GPU with this system, I don't think you're going to have any luck getting the Solaris implementation of X11 working.

One alternative option that might still allow you to run graphical Solaris software once the base system is installed would be to use a virtual X server such as Xvnc, which is supported on Solaris 11. You could then connect to the display provided by that X server from another local system you have with a VNC client, and get a graphical Solaris session running that way.

Hope this helps !
