Default Problems with PS/2 mouse on Ultra 5

Hi everyone,

I am using a KVM switch to control my Sun Ultra 5 (Solaris 9) with my
Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse. (I have the Sun keyboard and
mouse adapter unit.) The MS keyboard works fine on the Sun, but the
mouse won't behave. If I try to use it the motion across the screen is
unpredictable and the right-click menu is being activated at random.
The mouse connector is USB, plugged into a USB-PS/2 converter and then
into the Sun-PS/2 converter.

I had a similar problem with FreeBSD but was able to resolve it, but
the configuration files are different in Solaris.

Can anyone provide some advice to resolve the problem, or direct me to
some instructions?

Regards
