We get it -- you want kernel mode-setting instead of user space mode setting for the \
Illumos graphics driver stack. Please go write it instead of whining about its \
absence at every possible opportunity.
Your opinions on everything GUI vs CLI and which operating systems are relevant and \
and which are not are exactly that -- opinions crafted from your own very specific \
and apparently very narrow view of computing. There are literally dozens of \
alternative operating systems out there with modern GUIs that you may find more to \
your liking.
You are free to choose one and stop bombarding us with your negativity and pedantic \
behavior. Of course, these are merely my opinions so I shall not attempt to enforce \
them on a community that may or may not share my viewpoint.
