I have heard the opposite... It is possible to run linux binaries on Solaris x86 using something called "lxrun" .. not sure if it works, never tried it... http://www.sunfreeware.com have fun :)

I have heard somewhere or other that it is possible to run solaris x86
binaries on Linux.  Not sure by what mechanism this is possible...
But if you've got it working sufficiently that you think installing
Solaris packages on a Linux machine is a good idea, then you should be
able to copy the package management binaries from your Solaris box and
just run them.

You give no indication of what it is that you're trying to do, but
it's very possible that there are free software alternatives that
already run on Linux natively.  If so, this is probably a much better
solution...
