Hi, I realize this is probably very FAQ, but I just came into
possession of a working Power Glove and would like to play around with
it on my Sparcstation or Amiga. Any help or info on things like
pinouts, existing device driver or interfacing code would help.

The transmit pins on RS232C seem to control the sound device on the
PG, but I haven't have any luck trying to get any meaninful data out
of it or been able to send anything from the PG to my system.  (I've
had it hooked up to my HP95 and my sparcstation. I've found that when
you send a file through the serial port into the PG, you can hear it
go across, but thats it).

TIA

---Steve
