Cant' move Mouse
I'm installing solaris 9 on an Utra 5 machine. I am at the point where I need to insert Disk 2 of 2. After mounting Disk 2 of 2 in the drive, I can't move my mouse to click on
the "NEXT" button to continue with the installation.
The mouse in question is the sun mouse with the 3 buttons.
Is there a way around this?
NOTE: I'm a newbie
Thanks,
Ted

Hey all,
I've bought a few bits from Belkin who seem quite happy to support FreeBSD! Last time I bought a UPS from them and it's still going well :D
I saw this on their website that the 16bit PCMCIA card was supported under FreeBSD:

All XKCD jokes aside, can a feature be added to a bash script to move the mouse every X seconds to prevent the screensaver from activating? As is it, I launch mplayer through a script that sets some preferences (such as -zoom). Can I add something to that script which wiggles the mouse?

install_mouse
install_mouse(3alleg4) Allegro manual install_mouse(3alleg4)
NAME
install_mouse - Installs the Allegro mouse handler.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int install_mouse();
DESCRIPTION
Installs the Allegro mouse handler. You must do this before using any other mouse functions.
RETURN VALUE
Returns -1 on failure, zero if the mouse handler is already installed (in which case this function does nothing) and the number of buttons
on the mouse if the mouse handler has successfully been installed (ie. this is the first time a handler is installed or you have removed
the previous one).
Note that the number of mouse buttons returned by this function is more an indication than a physical reality. With most devices there is
no way of telling how many buttons there are, and any user can override the number of mouse buttons returned by this function with a custom
configuration file and the variable num_buttons. Even if this value is overridden by the user, the global mouse variables will still report
whatever the hardware is sending.
