Hi Bernd, the fix was delivered to Nevada/OpenSolaris build snv_27, so if you want to install any build post-snv_27 you should be fine. The backport for Solaris 10 was targeted at Update 3, but has not yet been delivered. I don't know why. As far as I'm aware, you should be able to use your Ultra-AXe system with both Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris/Nevada, it's just a problem with the keyboard driver which is preventing you from using Solaris 10 with it.
