Default Sun Ray 1 software

I've just picked up a "Sun Ray 1" at a hamfest last Sunday.
From looking on the Sun web site, I seem to need licensed server
software to run it. (Unless they have made it freely downloadable like
Solaris 10.)

It is a neat little package, and I would like to set it up to
run in my bedroom for connections when I am sick in bed, or when I want
to check on something in the middle of the night. Its advantage is that
it has no fan, unlike the other machines in the house.

So -- has *anyone* come up with freely-distributable software to
make something useful out of it -- even just to turn it into an xterm?
I don't need a lot of the other features claimed for the server
software.

Thanks much,
DoN.
