Hi,
     Yes my card is a PCI-E nic and my system has the PCI-E Bus required to 
house the card, so H/W is not an issue. The linux driver counterpart for my 
card works fine with MSI-X ,so pls tell me what else needs to be done ,if i am 
missing something?

Thanks
Som

There should not have bug with ddi_intr_get_supported_types().
Information in bugster showes that MSI/X support of x86 has been there
since S10 Update5.

Are you sure that your system supports MSI/X? Have you succeeded in
getting MSI/X work with other OS(es) on the same system?

Thanks,
Lucy
