Works fine with Solaris on an SS2. We used to use this exact card at work,
in an SS2 on our mail gateway running various Solaris versions. Also, I
booted Solaris 2.6 on the SS2 at home yesterday and the card was recognised
just fine.
Its a four port 10Mbps card, with an NCR QEC/MACE controller which steers
four 'QE' devices. On bootup, the PROM reports a 'qec' for the sbus slot
that the card is installed in, and a 'qe' for each sbus slot from 0 to 3.
