I think the cassini ethernet (ce) driver was never opensourced and it was
removed (EOLed) from Solaris 11. So I'd suggest to try some pre-S11-FCS (Open)Solaris
release like Solaris 11 Express 2010.11 or OpenSolaris 2009.06 and copy the ce
driver from them (if it is included there). The ce driver was not a part of the
ON tree. There was a separate gate for it, IIRC.


HTH.
