Hi All,
	I was hoping someone could please tell me if the following is 
	possible.
	I have a sun sparc slc running sunos 4.1.3 and wish to use
	a nec cdr84 cdrom drive with it. However when I try to use
	it to mount any cd's the drive seems to have a fit and I
	get massive anounts of kernel messages on the screen. Reading
	the online manual on sr(4s) it states "This device driver
	supports the SONY CDU-8012 CDROM drive controller and other
	CDROM drives which have the same scsi command set as the
	SONY CDU-8012". Is there a device driver out there that
	allows me to use NEC cdrom drives?

	Thanks In Advance
