Hi,

I have a logitech mouse, which is not getting detected in my solaris 7x86
machine. I don't see a /dev/mouse
entry either. How do I get solaris to see a mouse and/or add the driver for
this?

Thanks,
Andy

Have you done a reconfiguration boot?

From the "Forth Monitor" ok prompt in the OpenBoot firmware:

ok boot -r

From run state 1 or S (preferably) or when the system is quiescent:

# sync; sync; reboot -- -r


For more information please refer to the man pages for boot(1M) and
kernel(1M).

Is your mouse a PS2 mouse?
If it is, I belive that the link you are looking for is /dev/kdmouse .
