I doubt that SUNWxvnc being missing is really the reason why the patch 
does not install. Can you show us the complete screen output from "pca 
--install 125719" ?

SUNWxvnc does indeed come with Solaris 10, but only on Solaris 10 5/08 
or later. So I guess your CDs are from an older release. Check 
/etc/release for the release you have installed.

Anyway - 125719 is really "X11 6.8.0: Xorg server patch" and not a 
specific VNC patch. It should therefore install on any system which 
contains at least one of the SUNWxorg-* packages.

Martin.
