I am still interested in having ath work on Solaris 10. > > Please return me log files(/var/adm/messages) when plumbing,scanning & > connecting, suggest using "dalam" but "wificonfig". The only /var/adm/messages I get occur when I plumb the device. The messages are Jul 25 17:38:24 ferrari unix: [ID 954099 kern.info] NOTICE: IRQ21 is being shared by drivers with different interrupt levels.
