There isn't a driver at present, though they (dpt) have a BSDI (?) driver
kit on their web site.

I must second your recomendation of them. I've never used one of their
controllers, but I have one in the 486 I use. Unfortunately during setup,
it seems to have lost its little mind (I think one of the driver chips got
fried).

Their tech help was VERY HELPFUL. They put a lot of effort into someone
who had an old controller. I was VERY pleased.

Take care,
