[OpenIndiana-discuss] /dev/bmc on SuperMicro boards

Hi,

I'm trying to load the BMC driver from Solaris 11 on my OpenIndiana b151
install. It's a Supermicro X8DTL server board. The BMC driver is loaded
into the correct place I believe:

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     sys        21920 Nov 17 00:44 /kernel/drv/bmc
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     sys          177 Nov 17 00:44 /kernel/drv/bmc.conf
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     sys        34216 Nov 17 00:44 /kernel/drv/amd64/bmc

However, it doesn't seem to come up automatically on boot, and manually
running modload on amd64/bmc reports:

can't load module: No such device or address

Has anyone had luck getting the BMC driver to work with SM boards?

-J
