I finally finished it (though I expect to have to make some changes in the future …) :
Now I can setup my home automation events in MisterHouse throught my Mozilla Calendar ! The code has been submited and accepted for being integrated in MisterHouse and will be in the next release
Code is here.

Here is a little post to give a hint about setting up a printer on a Solaris 8 Workstation :

# lpadmin -p printerName -s printServer
# lpadmin -p printerName -D "Printer description text"
# lpadmin -d printerName
# lpstat -p printerName

and then check you can print with :

# echo test | lp

Checkout this great Solaris 8 docs repository at Sun.com.

if you get this kind of “error” :

Dec 14 02:36:31 hostname StoreX (Dec 14, 2005 2:36:31 AM FQDN):P3:System hostname-t3 (XX.XX.XX.XX) - Unit-unit-1 - Power-Module-2 (u1pcu2) : Power supply unit has switched to battery. Fru ID: u1pcu2, Model: 300-1454-01(50), Serial Number: XXXXXX
Dec 14 02:58:31 hostname StoreX (Dec 14, 2005 2:58:30 AM FQDN):P3:System hostname-t3 (XX.XX.XX.XX) - Unit-unit-1 - Power-Module-2 (u1pcu2) : The FRU has some error. Fru ID: u1pcu2, Model: 300-1454-01(50), Serial Number: XXXXX

then be aware that a T3 performs a battery refresh every so and then (this is by default every 28 days, but can be modified in /etc/schd.conf). This battery refresh can provoke this kind of error messages which are no error at all …

when logged on the T3, you can see the state of each FRU with the command

fru stat

Example :

hostname-t3:/:fru stat
