I installed the latest 'stable' OpenSol pre your posting. I am not sure if going to Beta or SXCE would make any difference as I've done 2 things now: 1st - being checked the Sun HCL's before even attempting the install, and the Marvell Ethernet adapter was not there at all only as 3rd party 2nd - being checked the laptop wireless site which states: "At present, this driver only supports basic 802.11B/G mode." --Does this mean no security also which is probably why I can't connect to anything? I did however find this site: http://solaris-x86.org/software/drivers/ - which in turn led me here: http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDownload.do The driver is for Sol 8,9,10 but I will try it with OpenSol and see what happens!!
