Hi, I have a T61 as well.
It is not the mix of e1000g0 and iwk, it is the iwk driver itself. I totally dissagree on that. The iwk driver for opensolaris is very instable and full of bugs, a problem, I have mentioned months ago, but no one seems to care for it. The iwk - driver does not support WPA2, I have to set all my Wireless Access Points to a mixed mode of WPA/WPA2 to support AES/TKIP encryption. only the TKIP encryption is understood by the driver. especially if you have a bittorrent client running, every few minutes you can say goodby to your wifi link and need to issue a "svcadm restart nwam" to get the link back for just another few minutes. for example on a Sony NR38Z AGN equipped with Intel 4965 AGN Wifi and a marvel chipset for wired lan has the same behaviour. on this notebook I finally was forced, to replace the intel PCIexpress card with a one having an atheros chipset. since than, it runs quite fine. how ever, even if you have not configured your e1000g0 on your T61, the iwk driver fucks up your system. I would be gratefully, if one fine day the known issues concerning the iwk driver could be solved once and for all. removing e1000g from /etc/driver_aliases is not an acceptable option as I need the device. I previously suspected, that after having a fresh nevada built installed the iwk driver runs quite good, but after enabling ipfilter, it's just messing up with the notebook. it's not ipfilter, it's not e1000g0 it's the buggy iwk itself.
