There are currently no accessibility options for the Solaris system that we
have been able to find. Since we are a research and engineering university
this has created real problems for our ability to provide any accommodations
other than using an emulation package from a Windows box.

There was a message kicking around on some other listservs announcing a
series of sessions at the CSUN Conference by the Sun accessibility team.
These will cover a variety of products & platforms & products: Java, Linux,
etc. I will dig it up & send separately.

Some mention of Solaris, but the specific reference was for low-vision
access.

You can contact the Sun accessibility group:
