The main thing is that it has i8042 keyboard controller.  I was under
the impression that installation was now supported in snv.  I have just
sent my unit in for repairs, otherwise I'd test it now.  Frankly, if it
doesn't work, then we want to submit whatever code bits are necessary to
make it work.

In the past we had separate install CDs, but obviously we'd prefer to
have the necessary bits integrated into (Open)Solaris.
