This message concerns OpenIndiana Hipster desktop users.

Xorg server was updated to 1.14.7 in OpenIndiana Hipster.
(We haven't gone to Xorg 1.17.2 as in newer Xorg versions new radeon driver requires KMS, and old one doesn't work properly). Vesa, nvidia, radeon and vbox video drivers were tested and were found working.

Note, that third-party Xorg modules and drivers may require updating, as module ABI is not compatible between major X server versions. If you use VirtualBox video driver, you can use one from 5.0.4 guest additions, it works with Xorg 1.14.7.
Guest additions can be updated without updating VirtualBox itself
(http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.4/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.0.4.iso).
