+ Solaris releases before Solaris 10 1/06, including Solaris 9, Solaris + 10 1/05 (GA), and Solaris 10 3/05 (HW2), are unable to communicate + through the Intel E1000 card. The Solaris e1000g driver does not enable + PCI bus mastering for the network adapter and is therefore unable to send + and receive data. This problem appears to be specific to the e1000g + driver and does not reflect general Solaris driver behavior. +

+ +

+ The AMD PCnet emulation (using the Solaris pcn driver) can be used + instead of Intel E1000. Solaris 10 1/06 (U1) and later releases do not + have this problem and work with the emulated E1000 ethernet + controller. +
