Sound Issue Sun M2

Just booted up a new M2. Got a red line over the sound icon gnome desktop bottom right. I ran dmesg and grepped for audio and nothing came up. I ran a untility from sun that servers for device drivers. It noted that the nvidia sound driver is not part of Solaris 10. I am confused? The whole reason I bought the machine from Sun was so that I don't have any driver issues. I am convinced I am missing something but I can figure out where to find the driver.

Anyone have any ideaS?

I have an M2 and noticed that as well. I use sunrays so I never bothered trying to figure it out.null

Well I found a work around from our folks in the open source world.

If anyone knows if Sun actually has a driver let me know otherwise use:

http://www.opensound.com/index.html

Goto downloads and select Solaris 10 x86 as OS.

There are instruction there on howto install. Basically it is as simply as pkgadd and reboot.

Once rebooted just unmute the souind control and enjoy.

Wow, there has to be something provided by sun to do that. I guess the box is too new for most people to have experienced this.THanks for the info.
