Yes. But the chip is a Marvell chip, and Marvell has his own driver for it, the 
"yukonx" for Solaris. Both exhibit almost the same behavior (link goes up and 
down the whole time, NIC is unusable).

I seriously doubt two or three Solaris users can influence either Marvell or 
SysKonnect to fix their stuff.
It is really not understandable to me that neither companies tested the NIC and 
the drivers on Solaris throughly. Since that is the case, chances are high they 
simply don't care.

Can you do anything for our case? If the request to fix comes from Sun, it 
looks more official. Sun has better chances of getting these companies to do 
something about it than us few Solaris users. We still don't have enough 
momentum and clout to get the OEMs to better support Solaris.
