Question was:
        I try installing KDE from
        http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/freeware/s9pkgs_download.html
        on a Solaris 9 Blade 150.

        When login with 'KDE desktop', it fails.
        I found that I have one missing library: libXrender.so.1
        
        Where can I find it?
        Is there somewhere a roadmap explaining KDE installation
        on an "out of the box" Solaris 9? It's not obvious...

Thanks to:
Gene Siepka : look on Sun's BigAdmin website for a roadmap.
Sean McKay : try http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php/libxrender
Gerard Henry : look in Sun database for "Document ID: 4979378"
Valeriy Glinskiy : it is available on Solaris9 update 5, package SUNWxwplt

I solved my problem using:
        render_dev-0.8,REV=2004.03.30-SunOS5.8-all-CSW.pkg.gz
        libxrender-0.8.3,REV=2004.03.31-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz
        common-1.4.1-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz
available from http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/csw/unstable/sparc/5.8,
a link I got via http://www.blastwave.org/packages.php/libxrender
