Hi.
There's OI HCL https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Community+HCL and illumos 
HCL https://www.illumos.org/hcl/.
For graphics it's better to rely to Nvidia or Intel adapters, DRI on 
AMD/ATI adapters will work only with software rendering (if it will at 
all). The exact list of PCI ids of supported Intel adapters can be found 
here 
https://github.com/illumos/gfx-drm/blob/master/usr/src/pkg/manifests/driver-graphics-drm.mf#L60 
(at least these are adapters which are supposed to be handled by our 
driver).
Without more information (at least Xorg log) it's hardly possible to say 
what's happening.
