    I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but does anyone know if
    drivers for Intel's Pro/1000MT gigabit PCI network interfaces are
    available for the SPARC version of OSOL?

    I've installed Milax 0.3.2 on an E450 and it configures & uses the
    on-board hme0 interface but doesn't see either the Intel E100 (100
    Mbit/s) or MT1000 gigabit PCI interface cards. I seem to remember
    reading somewhere that drivers for Intel NICs were included with
    Solaris 10 - would it be possible to install the driver from Sol 10
    and use this with Milax/OSOL or would I be better off getting a
    Sun-supported gigabit NIC?


I'd expect to see the e1000g driver under /kernel/drv/sparcv9.
That should attach and work just fine with your card, though
it's certainly possible that you might have to check your driver
aliases and update via update_drv.

This is missing from /kernel/drv/sparcv9 so I'll see if I can find it elsewhere.

Thanks for the info!
