PC Card (PCMCIA) Devices

The PCMCIA devices that are listed in this section were tested on previous versions of Solaris x86 Platform Edition. Sun does not guarantee that these devices are compatible with current notebook (laptop) computer models.

Although notebook systems are not certified, many notebook systems run well with the Solaris software. The sources, which Sun does not endorse, identify systems and devices that work with Solaris x86 Platform Edition.

  • The solarisonintel mailing list (http://www.egroups.com/group/solarisonintel) is a discussion forum for issues that are related to Solaris x86 Platform Edition.

  • XI Graphics (http://www.xig.com) supports a range of video drivers for notebook devices and offers a patch to allow certain notebooks to use the PCMCIA drivers available from Solaris x86 Platform Edition.

  • The Solaris Laptop List (x86), compiled by Phil Brown, (http://www.bolthole.com/solaris/x86-laptops.html) lists notebook system configurations that work with Solaris x86 Platform Edition.

1 This adapter supports PCI hot-plugging.

2 This adapter can be made RAID-capable with the addition of a Hardware Disk Array module.

3 This adapter does not have the SDMS BIOS on board. It should be used only on a system that contains the SCSI BIOS as part of its main system BIOS.

4 Wide SCSI not yet supported in Solaris driver.

5 To perform a Solaris installation using Solaris Web Start 3.0, you must use version 4.07.01 of the symhisl driver. To obtain this driver, go to the LSI web site.
