Hi, I have been using ubuntu for a while now but decided to give opensolaris a try (thanks to Phoronix for those superb screenshots). I tried the live CD and everything booted up beautifully and I am surprised how polished the distribution looked. While everything loaded pretty well on my Dell Inspiron 1525, my integrated wifi card could not be used. I checked Device manager and it showed the wifi and the wired lan missing drivers. However I am unable to install any drivers because this is a live environment and my CD drive is already being occupied by the liveCD.
so my question is, how do I go about fixing this issue? I read NDIS could be used (I believe I have a broadcom card, and I might have the drivers on CD that came with my laptop). However is NDIS already installed on opensolaris 2008.11? If not, how could I install it considering I can't get any internet connection at this point? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. This is my very first time trying out Solaris, and I would love for it to continue without such barriers. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
