Hey guys,

Looking at this forum, I see you are VERY BUSY!

I figured I would post this for the next guy who tries to get his Toshiba 
working with Solaris.

1. It appears the Intel Pro/1000 PL NIC is automatically detected. 
2. Maybe the Wireless works, Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG, but I don't have a 
wireless router to test it yet. 
3. Also, I noticed that this new utility, "nwamd", that automatically tries to 
determine which network connection is "available", and shuts down the 
"Unavailable" connection. Meaning, if a fixed link is available then it 
defaults to that first; if wireless is available it uses that as a backup.

As an aside ...
1. I checked Intel's website and noticed no drivers for Solaris.
2. I checked Toshiba's web site and noticed driver support for XP and Vista, 
and that's it.

At this point I was a bit unhappy, and the "Vole" (Microsoft) was laughing, but 
I didn't give up! Debian seems to work fine, so at least there is some Linux 
support out there.

I would prefer to run Solaris, so when you fix this, tell us!

Bill
