Laptop community live!

As promised, the OpenSolaris laptop community went live somewhere in the last few days.

The first wireless driver is available (Supporting some Atheros MiniPCI and cardbus cards; but Cardbus support will have to wait until the Solaris cardbus driver is released)

Watch that space for further announcement of exciting drivers which will make your laptop much more usable.

Oh, I've finally refreshed the powernow driver to be a bit more lenient with broken BIOSes and initial CPU configs which are a bit off.
