SunOS 5.8 and mouse setup

Hi everybody, hope you're fine Smilie.

I'm coming back to you one more time because I have a problem I can't solve (and spent already a lot of time looking for an answer on the internet).

So, I have a Sun Blade 1500 x64 sparc arch with Sun OS 5.8 installed on it.
I know, SunOS is out of date, but I need that specific OS version because I'm using Cadds software wich needs that version of SunOS.

Everything just works fine with that machine, except for the mouse.

It's a USB mouse with 2 buttons and a wheel.

Left click and right click just work fine, but I can't get the wheel to work (or the middle click).

The problem is, to use Cadds in good conditions, we have to middle click a lot and that does nothing.

Do you know how I can set up the mouse in SunOS 5.8? I looked on the internet, founded lots of man pages, but haven't been able to set it up yet.

Any help is welcome Smilie.

Thanks a lot in advance.

ps : sorry for my bad English, this is not my native language but try my best Smilie

NAME
mousetweaks - Accessibility enhancements for the mouse SYNOPSIS
mousetweaks [--enable-dwell] [--enable-secondary] [--dwell-time=FLOAT] [--secondary-time=FLOAT] [-m|--dwell-mode=STRING] [-c|--show-ctw] [-x|--ctw-x=INT] [-y|--ctw-y=INT] [-t|--threshold=INT] [-s|--shutdown] [--disable-animations] [--daemonize] [-?|--help] DESCRIPTION
mousetweaks is a daemon that provides various mouse features for the GNOME desktop. It depends on the Assistive Technology Service Provider Interface (AT-SPI). OPTIONS
--enable-dwell Automatically perform mouse clicks without using a physical button. --enable-secondary Trigger the secondary mouse button when the primary mouse button is held down for a specified amount of time. --dwell-time=FLOAT Time to keep the pointer motionless before a dwell click is performed. Range: 0.2 - 3.0 seconds. --secondary-time=FLOAT Time to hold the primary mouse button before a simulated secondary click is performed. Range: 0.5 - 3.0 seconds. -m, --dwell-mode=STRING Select a dwelling mode. Available arguments are: window, gesture WINDOW Select the active click type from a window or a panel applet. GESTURE Perform clicks by moving in different directions after the cursor changes its shape. -c, --show-ctw Show the click-type window. Only useful in combination with dwell-mode=window. -x, --ctw-x=INT X Position of the click-type window on screen. -y, --ctw-y=INT Y Position of the click-type window on screen. -t, --threshold=INT Ignore small pointer movements. Range 0 - 30 pixels. -s, --shutdown Stop the mousetweaks daemon. --disable-animation Disable cursor animations. The animation shows the timer progress for dwell clicks and secondary clicks as cursor overlay. --daemonize Start mousetweaks in the background, ie. spawn a child process. --login Start mousetweaks in login mode. In login mode, mousetweaks does not check whether AT-SPI is running. FILES
~/.mousetweaks.pid The daemon creates a lock file in the users home directory to keep track of its status. BUGS
