After following the instruction given in the "Solaris for Intel X86 FAQ" to install XFree86 4.0.2, my Microsoft WheelMouse Optical (on a USB port) doesn't work at all. Furthermore, after adding the CDE fonts in "/usr/openwin/lib/fonts/F3bitmaps/" to XF86Config, the fonts that appear on the CDE login screen look like those bitmap figures that are stretched like craps. What should I do to make my mouse work and how can I configure the CDE so that I see the original fonts that originally comes with SUN? Please advice.
