Looking for a wireless driver for Solaris 10(x86)
Hello, I just installed Solaris 10 on an good old Thinkpad r52 laptop, everything seems to work fine, except for a wireless network interface which needs a third party driver. Back in days this driver was freely available from opensolaris.org now it's gone. The name of the package is SUNWiwi, version required - 0.3 or older. Archive.org has iwi-0.4, which is too new(driver fails to attach), also a source code is available, although there are no instructions how to build:
[here was supposed to be a link to Archive.org page, but I'm not allowed to post links yet]
Also I'm looking for a precompiled distributions of Mplayer, Totem or anything capable playing at least Xvids.

I know that Sun make s a version of Solaris for Sparc platforms and also an x86 (Intel/AMD) release of Solaris. Can an application that runs on Solaris/Sparc also run on a PC running the x86 release of Solaris? Would a different release be required or any re-compling of the application?

would anyone know where to get a Linux ( Red Hat ) driver for a SafeCom ( i.e. Texas Instruments ) 11g WLAN card SWLPT 54108 ?

UHMODEM(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual UHMODEM(4)
NAME
uhmodem -- USB support for Huawei 3G wireless modem device
SYNOPSIS
uhmodem* at uhub?
ucom* at uhmodem?
HARDWARE
The uhmodem driver supports the following adapters:
Huawei E220
E-mobile D01HW
E-mobile D02HW
NTT DoCoMo a2502
DESCRIPTION
The uhmodem driver provides support for the Huawei 3G wireless modems and its variants. This type of device has multiple com ports. And
some modems have own storage to contain its device driver (for Windows). The uhmodem driver can handle all of these functions on the device.
When the device attached, it will attach multiple ucom devices. The former one is main com device to use communication with your network
provider, and others are sub com devices to monitor the condition of data communication and/or network status. These com devices can be used
simultaneously.
The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes it behave like a tty(4).
SEE ALSO
tty(4), ubsa(4), ucom(4), usb(4)
HISTORY
The uhmodem driver first appeared in NetBSD 5.0. Separate from ubsa driver.
