Has anyone out there successfully modified the standard Inmos unix/VME device
driver and iserver, Inmos product IMS S514C, to talk with a B014 via an Sbus
to VME link adpater (Bit3 device) ?

I'm *sure* I've seen this configuration at tradeshows and such like, but Inmos
say they've never tried it. Transtech I know provide similar drivers  (though
presumably more sophisticated) for their MCP500 - but this aint much use since
they dont reveal their source code.

Any help/comments much appreciated.

Cheers,


Shaun.
