Hi all, after installing OpenSolaris 2008.11 on my Toshiba M10 and even after an all package update I was never able to connect to my wireless.
I then removed the original SUNWiwh package and installed the driver from http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/sierra/files/SUNWiwh.tar.gz give the fact that less /etc/release shows: OpenSolaris 2008.11 snv_101a_rc1b X86 Copyright 2008 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Use is subject to license terms. Assembled 05 November 2008 but stil with no success.
