Today I find a Fujistu laptop with the same symptom and finally root cause this issue. It should be a known boot bug of solaris, see: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6419924 Because of the incorrect configuration of the pcie-pci bridge, the memory operation can not be forwarded by the bridge, so all I/O(memory mapped I/O) operations on 3945 fail, so that all the registers on 3945 are read out as 0xFF. I have made that Fujistu work by manually modifying the config space registers of the pcie-pci bridge behind which the 3945 chipset resides, but this modification doesn't work for your laptop due to motherboard difference. So pls send me the '/usr/X11/bin/scanpci -v', then I will try to work out a scipt for you to make your wifi work.
