Lxrun is not an emulator, so you need to have underlying Intel hardware in order to run Intel Linux binaries. Sun is providing this for Intel systems running Solaris where it could be useful, but I don't know how useful this would be for SPARC based systems (depending on the number of SPARC based Linux applications).
