I think that card was basically a PCI-PCI bridge with four
of the Digital Tulip chips on the other side. It should
work fine on Solaris x86 (no extra drivers needed).
Sun did not ship a Digital Tulip driver for sparc, but if
you can find one from someone else, then it would probably
work on sparc, although I am not aware of any such driver.
