Here below is the solution of this problem.
Special thank to Ryan A. Krenzischek who gives me the precious suggestion

I download the driver, his latest patch and the manuals at this location,
and follow the installation process.
Afterwards, i reboot the system (with the -r option) and everything was OK.
Many thanks to everyone for your speedy reply,
Bests Regards

You need to download the drivers. The Raptor drivers aren't included with
Solaris 2.6. The drivers and manuals for your video card can be found
here:

Hi All,

We have just bought a refurbished Sun Enterprise 250 server. We'd like to
install the Solaris 2.6 on it . But at the starting process, it displays
the
following error message: *Can't find driver for console framebuffer. *
*TSI: gfxp1 is GFX8P @ 1280x1024.*
When we install anyway the solaris 2.6 and reboot the system, the CDE
doesn't start.
I need your precious help.
Thank you in advance
Bests Regards
M Keita
