Full Discussion: Solaris 8 mouse only moveable within an box area
Operating Systems Solaris Solaris 8 mouse only moveable within an box area Post 302987778 by MadeInGermany on Thursday 15th of December 2016 01:36:57 PM

Solaris 8 is quite old.
The described symptom indicates a software problem.
Most likely you need to apply a Xsun patch (X-server).
Or an X-client (Openwindows/Openlook/Xview or Motif) patch (that was certainly meant with "X-windows").
Less likely a kernel patch (includes the mouse driver).
