I am running the current Solaris Express Developers Edition on a Compaq nx9600 
laptop, with a 3.6 P-4 and 2gb ram. 

When pluged into the net, I am able to get online just fine. However, I am 
unable to get wireless started.  I have the Compaq drivers on cd and am not 
afraid to use ndiswrapper, I am just uncertain how to use it with Solaris. 

There are issues as well playing cd's or dvd's with the laptop. I have tested 
these cd's and dvd's on a Solaris x86 desktop: Rythmplayer & Real Player work 
just fine. This makes it obvious it is a drivers issue or hardware 
compatibility issue. I have the drivers on cd for audio and video, I do not 
know if ndiswrapper can install these.

I am open to whatever it takes to make my laptop have wireless access, where 
ever; whilst running OpenSolaris. Please advise.
