I am looking for the T60 Think pad Driver for E1000 G Networking issue.
Solaris 10 Update 3 does not have this update.
.
Were is the driver located I can download.
thanks
----------------------------------------------
Hi Toni,
The e1000g driver has some problem with the support for the device
"pciex8086,109a". We have had an internal bug opened for this issue.
And this problem will be solved soon in next Nevada build.
If you need a fixed binary to bring up your network, please let me know,
I can send you a binary for verification.
Thanks,
Ted
