Just one simple question, maybe a stupid one:
If the nfo driver is free, why isn't it included in Solaris Express Developers 
Edition or Solaris 10?
Is there any reason for this? It would be a lot easier for Solaris users if the 
NIC driver was installed automatically. I've tried installing this driver for a 
year now without success. That's the reason why I bought an Ethernet card. 
Issues like these are the reason why some people stay away from Solaris.
I know it is not Sun's fault if hardware manufacturers do not support Solaris, 
but now that someone took the time and effort to write a NIC driver for Solaris 
and made it free to redistribute(?) why not include it in Solaris? Is there any 
restriction to this?
Thank you very much.


Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.
