Wednesday July 27, 2005 Solaris x86 + Tecra M2 : Sound Support
It took me two days to realize that my sound wasn't working on the Solaris Community Express installation on my Toshiba Tecra M2. It took me a couple of hours of digging, both on the system, and on Google, to find links to a couple of articles that between them had the information I needed to get sound working. It's actually very simple.
The drivers I found at http://www.tools.de/solaris/audio/beta/ worked perfectly for me.
I downloaded and installed the TOOLSi810 package from the tools.de site, and then did the following:
update_drv -d -i '"pci8086,24c5"' audio810
update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,24c5"' audioi810
update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,24c5"' audioi810
The first line removes the Sun driver that doesn't work with my hardware, and the second line adds the TOOLS driver_alias.
Note that the PCI addresses are wrapped in single-quotes outside of double-quotes.
Now, reboot and you'll be all set. Hopefully.

YMMV :)
