When you get Solaris 8, you get a whole bunch of CD's with extra stuff (well 2 or 3) it's in the compian (CD with extra programs). When you invoke the installer, then go through the selection for installation you'll be shown what apps it'll be installing.
Don't try and install it from JUST the CD without starting the installer. I've tried it and couldn't get it to work. Just start the installer then install it. If you want install the rest of the programs to.
Once done type 'which cdrw' at the command line and it'll tell you where it is. Should be off top of my head /usr/sbin or /usr/bin one of those two I'm pretty sure.
Just a hint thoug for when you get it running you'll also need to use the mkisofs command. This is how I would burn a program with this method;
mkisofs -r filename filename.tar | cdrw -i -O
That command would make the following files into ISO format the put the out put to the cdrw program. Option -i burns the CD at the burners speed otherwise it burns at x4 (I think) the -O (not zero) leave the CD open incase you want to add to it later. If you get it going and need a little more help let me know.
Also I use the cdrw program,
A: Because I like it
B: I work with security stuff sometimes, and burning with mkisofs and using cdrw to burn is good. It makes the format of the CD so it can only be read with UNIX/Linux (Think linux). This is good incase someone tried to get the CD and doesn't know what is on it. If it goes into a Windows machine it will think the CD is empty due to the format

input-linux-mouse(7) GGI input-linux-mouse(7) NAME
input-linux-mouse - Direct mouse input SYNOPSIS
input-linux-mouse: [<mousetype>] [,<file>] [,[b<bauds>][r<rts>][d<dtr>]] DESCRIPTION
This input opens a file (usually a device file or pipe) and reads mouse protocol data from it. OPTIONS
mousetype Indicates what type of mouse is attached. The following types are supported: o ms, Microsoft : Two button Microsoft compatible mice. o ms3, IntelliMouse, mman+ : Serial Intellimouse or compatible. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech MouseMan+. o MouseSystems, msc : MouseSystems compatible (used in most 3-button mice). o Logitech, logi : Used in older Logitech serial mice. o mm, MMSeries : MM series mice. o Sun : Sun mice. The protocol is the same as 'msc' protocol except it used only 3 bytes per packet. o MouseMan, mman : MouseMan protocol. o BusMouse, bm : Non-PS/2 busmice. o LinuxUSB, lnxusb : IMPS2 that doesn't choke on USB (no init attempted). o ps2, PS/2 : PS/2 mice (most non-serial mice use this protocol) o imps2, IMPS/2 : PS/2 IntelliMouse and compatible (not USB, see lnxusb for that.) o mmanps2, MouseManPlusPS/2 : PS/2 Logitech MouseMan+ and compatible. Most of the strings supported by GPM, SVGAlib and XFree can be specified. If you find one that isn't, please report. The special value auto tells input-linux-mouse to read ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse, and if that fails, $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux- mouse. If none of the two files are found, input-linux-mouse tries to auto-detect the mouse, and as a last resort uses the mouse information specified in /etc/vga/libvga.config. file The file to read mouse protocol data from; defaults to /dev/mouse. baud Baud rate of mouse device. rts Turns off RTS if set to 0; turns RTS on if set to a number greater than 0. dtr Turns off DTR if set to 0; turns DTR on if set to a number greater than 0. FEATURES
o Generates evPtr* events. FILES
~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse and $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse consists of the following entries: mouse mousetype mdev file where mousetype and file has the same semantics as the invocation options of the same names. libgii-1.0.x 2003-08-11 input-linux-mouse(7)
