From
Code:
man uname


Code:
     -s              Prints the name  of  the  operating  system.
                     This is the default.

As you can see this has nothing to do with manufacturer.
If you are eager to see manufacturers name do it in this way:

Code:
cat /etc/release

Code:
       Solaris 10 10/09 s10x_u8wos_08a X86
