It was a few developers' effort to get this far. Let's keep the code
for those who still need it.

Acked-by: Ping Cheng 

Thank you Jason for maintaining the code.

[Linuxwacom-devel] [PATCH linuxwacom] Add support for Oracle Solaris 10

[Jason Gerecke]

This patch adds support for Solaris 10 and is based on code produced
in 2010 by Sun Microsystems. The original code was targeted at OpenSolaris
snv_115 - snv_129 and was based on linuxwacom 0.8.4. The original patches
don't appear to be available online [1] anymore, except in our out-of-date
'solaris' branch.

+**Solaris Notes For linuxwacom**
+
+
+# Overview  ###
+
+[usbwcm STREAMS module]:
+https://github.com/linuxwacom/usbwcm/
+
+Version 0.12.0 of the linuxwacom driver introduced support for the Solaris
+operating system. This code is minimally tested and regressions may occur
+without warning. At the time of writing, only Solaris 10 U9 and U11
+("5/10" and "1/13") have been explicitly tested for compatibility. Please
+contact the linuxwacom project maintainers through SourceForge or Github
+if you have specific concerns or issues using this driver on Solaris.
+
+Note that these sources do not contain any Solaris kernel code. License
+incompatibilities prevent us from distributing both as a combined work.
+Please be sure to install the [usbwcm STREAMS module][] in addition to
+this driver.
+
+
+# Usage  ##
+
+[configuring X11]:
+http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index_old.php/howto/x11
+
+The Xorg server must be manually configured to make use of connected
+tablets in Solaris 10. Please see the [configuring X11][] section of
+the linuxwacom manual for details on the modifications that must be
+made to the `/etc/X11/xorg.conf` file. The appropriate device node
+(e.g. `/dev/usb/hid0`) will need to be determined based on the output
+of `dmesg`. See the Troubleshooting section below if you encounter
+problems. The mouse pointer should move in response to pen input once
+the X server is properly configured.
+
+Some applications require additional configuration to make full use
+of tablet data. For example, GIMP must have the "stylus" and "eraser"
+tools set to "Screen" mode in its Extended Input Devices preferences.
+It is impossible to provide instructions for each application. Please
+see your application documentation for details if the tablet does not
+appear to be automatically detected.
+
+The linuxwacom driver provides a pair of configuration utilities
+that can be used to modify or tune the behavior of connected tablets.
+The `xsetwacom` utility provides a scriptable command-line interface,
+while `wacomcpl` is a graphical Tcl/Tk application. Debug utilities
+such as `wacdump` and `xidump` are also included should issues arise.
+
+
+# Build, Install, and Uninstall ###
+
+## Solaris 10 ##
+
+Although the linuxwacom driver can be built for Solaris 10, the process
+is non-obvious largely due to a lack of Xorg SDK development headers. An
+interactive script which takes care of the entire build process (from
+obtaining prerequisites to setting up environment variables) should have
+been distributed alongside this file. Please note that the final command
+may warn you that the `wacom_drv.so` file is already present on the system
+and ask what you would like to do. This is normal: the SUNWxorg-server
+package installs an out-of-date version of this file and you should tell the
+system to replace it.
+
+# ./solaris-build.sh
+# cp workdir/WAClinuxwacom__.pkg.tar.gz /tmp
+# cd /tmp
+# gzcat WAClinuxwacom__.pkg.tar.gz | tar xf -
+# pkgadd -d .
+
+Once the linuxwacom (and usbwcm) driver has been installed, you will need
+to edit your `/etc/X11/xorg.conf` file as outlined above in the **Usage**
+section. If no `xorg.conf` file exists, it may be necessary to first
+generate one by running `/usr/X11/bin/xorgcfg` as root.
