You are right

I have DELL USB keyboard
i tried with this commands

kbd -s with no result
then i tried
eeprom keyboard-layou=Croatian
tried also to edit /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc

I tried to configure Xserver but hole system has gone with the windSmilie [I do not know how
to edit that file ]

but the thing is when the system was installed I tooked ONLY croatian keyboard layout .

On previous version my keyboard was working quite well with this script
Code:
mkdir /etc/dt/config
cp Xstartup /etc/dt/config
cat >> /etc/dt/config/Xstartup <<%EOF%
xmodmap -e "keycode  55 = v V at grave"
xmodmap -e "keycode  24 = q Q backslash Greek_OMEGA"
xmodmap -e "keycode  25 = w W bar Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  26 = e E EuroSign EuroSign"
xmodmap -e "keycode  41 = f F bracketleft ordfeminine"
xmodmap -e "keycode  42 = g G bracketright ENG"
xmodmap -e "keycode  45 = k K lstroke ampersand"
xmodmap -e "keycode  46 = l L lstroke Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  56 = b B braceleft apostrophe"
xmodmap -e "keycode  57 = n N braceright braceright"
xmodmap -e "keycode  58 = m M asciicircum masculine"
%EOF

but the thing is why my keyboard work with no mistake on Ubuntu ????
And now I just want to know to replace Solaris keymap with Ubuntu keymap , but also I want to know why I can not have change keyboard layout in this vesrion of Solaris Smilie
