Hi Ochomoz, just curious: which Marvell-Yukon chipset does it say the Toshiba laptop has when you open the Device Driver utility? Also, which driver did you use? Did you use the SKGE driver or did you use the MYK driver? Also, where did you download it from and how did you go about installing it?
I'm dying to hear the story behind this because I used to have a lot of problems with the 64 bit skge driver when running OpenSolaris 2008.05 snv_86 on an Asus P5-KVM motherboard back in May of this year (ironically enough, the CD that comes with the purchase of the motherboard had 32 bit skge drivers for Solaris 9 or 10 x86 but I couldn't get those to work with OpenSolaris 2008.05 in 64 bit mode). The experience with the skge driver was so frustrating that after one week I gave up and disabled the Marvell-Yukon gigabit NIC in the BIOS and plugged an 3com elxl0 card into the motherboard (see the link below for information about elxl drivers): http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5177/elxl-7d?a=view IMO Red Hat Linux did a terrible job with those Marvell-Yukon chipsets back in the day as did the older versions of FreeBSD, so honestly I didn't expect OpenSolaris to do better than Red Hat Linux did. The only O.S. I have seen so far that handled that chipset nicely right away on the initial install was Debian / Ubuntu. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
