Hi

I'm looking at making the switch from Linux to OpenSolaris and I've got one 
major gripe so far in that it doesn't detect any network devices it has drivers 
for.

This is the relevant lspci -v output from Linux on the machine:

03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02)
        Subsystem: Dell Device 01cd
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17
        Memory at ef9fe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
        Kernel driver in use: b44
        Kernel modules: b44

0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Dell Device 0007
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17
        Memory at efdfc000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
        Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge
        Kernel modules: ssb

I know Broadcom are an arse, but they're pretty common. What's the easiest 
route to a working network (preferably with the wireless and WPA2 support)? Is 
there likely to be OOTB support for these soon, are there any scripts available 
which retrieve the drivers and install ndiswrapper?

Thanks
