Nothing really has changed with Bonobo. It is a part of
the GNOME Platform and is considered stable and supported
by the GNOME community. The modules (ORBit2, libbonobo,
libbonoboui, libIDL, etc.) haven't really changed much
since GNOME 2.0.
In GNOME 2.0 several programs used bonobo components

This isn't the right place for this since Solaris 9 and 10 aren't OpenSolaris.
I personally use Firefox 1.5 which can be compiled or downloaded. Sometimes I
use Konqueror, since I use KDE.

This isn't the right place for this, since you aren't running OpenSolaris, but
I'll help you anyway.
Since this is during POST, there's a 90% chance this is hardware, usually
memory or CPU. There's a small chance that a new firmware/BIOS/OBP will help,
but if you can't POST, there'll be no way
