Hi Bernd,

Since most of your questions are suspend/resume related, I'd recommend you post them over to the [email protected] list, getting it in front of the right eyeballs. You can find a link off of the project page:

Hi,

now that OpenSolaris supports suspend/resume on my Thinkpad T61p its' time to 
migrate from Ubuntu to OpenSolaris.

I already installed OpenSolaris 11.2008 and in general it works pretty good. 
There are some minor things that I would like to fix:

1. Everytime OpenSolaris boots and after every resume from suspend the dialog 
to add a new Printer pops up for my USB printer. I already added the USB 
printer so this is a bit anoying.

2. The network adapter is not configured after a resume. After each resume I must manually restart the nwam service to configure the network adapter using
svcadm restart svc:/network/physical:nwam

3. The SD Slot does not work in OpenSolaris 11.2008 :

Apr 18 12:34:32 t61p genunix: [ID 311833 kern.warning] WARNING: sdhost0: slot 
0: Failed to IDLE card
Apr 18 12:34:32 t61p genunix: [ID 988679 kern.warning] WARNING: sdhost0: slot 
0: Unable to initialize card!

It does work in the current release for OpenSolaris 06.2009 -- so the question 
is: How can I upgrade only the driver for the SD card?
(I must admit that I do not really understand the new packaging system at this 
time)

While it's possible to add a repository and add just a single package, doing so with device drivers probably isn't advisable unless you've been told to by someone who knows what's happening with the driver. The reason is that sometimes there are changes in other drivers (or the kernel) to go along with the driver change.

The best thing to do would be to update your system to run off of the /dev repository, which is updated every two weeks and is (lightly) tested to work together. It sounds like you may know of this already though.


4. In Ubuntu I can use Fn-F4 to suspend the T61p -- can this be configured in 
OpenSolaris also?


5. In Ubuntu the T61p resumes after opening the Display  - can this be 
configured in OpenSolaris also?


Hope that helps,

- Matt
