[ug-bosug] laptop

[Manish Chakravarty]

Hi Avinash,

I own an HP NX6325. Almost everything works out of the box. ( Usb, sound, NIC) 
HP laptops typically use Broadcom chipsets for both wireless and Ethernet. You may need to "plumb" your interface ( have you tried it?)

I am told broadcom wireless chipsets are supported via ndiswrapper. 

Things that don't work in my laptop: fingerprint reader ( no. Drivers in opensolaris) , media card reader & the bluetooth radio ( no bluetooth stack on opensolaris)

The drawback of my lappy is that it has an ATI card.
