Pascal,

Could you give more details on your setup?
Are you running the client and the server on the same machine?
If not, depending on your X11 server, you may have to replace in
$ROOTSYS/etc/system.rootrc the line:
X11.FindBestVisual:      yes
by
X11.FindBestVisual:      no

If you are running on the same machine, did you try to import the binaries
for Solaris 5.8 from our web site? 
When compiling from source, which compiler version did you use?
