I am planning to revive our transputer board by trying to get a Volvox
SBus-card to do something, but all I get is that the driver installs
perfectly ok, saying that transputer and controller are ok, but as soon
as I try to do open the /dev/vxv0 device the whole system stops(!) by
saying that the driver (vxv) tried to read from address 0x04, pme00. Has
anybody ever encountered such a problem or does someone have positive
experience running the Volvox vxv-driver under SOlaris (2.5.1)?

Thank you for your help
