The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. (SCO) customers.
A Vendor Contributed Driver is software offered to SCO customers,
without consideration of any kind, provided "AS IS" to be used by the
SCO customer. SCO shall not provide any support for the Driver.
At SCO's discretion, SCO may remove the Vendor Contributed Driver.

What to do once the files have been downloaded to the local machine
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The files ending in .Z have been reduced in size using the compress
utility. These files must first be unpacked using uncompress(C).
Files ending in .ltr or .doc are cover letter and installation instructions
for the corresponding supplements. The cover letters assume you have
received the supplements on diskette. To install a supplement, you
must first transfer it to a diskette using the following procedure:
1. Request the file and cover letter/documentation via your favorite
file tranfer protocol. (Note: if transferring to a DOS based machine
you will need to transfer the files to a SCO UNIX machine before
proceeding to step 2)
2. Unpack the files as necessary using uncompress(C).
3. Use the dd(C) command to transfer the supplement file to the
diskette. For example, if the supplement file is "ibm001"
and is in the /usr/spool/uucpublic directory on your system, and
the diskette is 3.5-inch, 720K, the command would be:
dd if=/usr/spool/uucppublic/VCD/ibm001 of=/dev/rd0135ds9
Substitute the appropriate device name for "dev/fd0135ds9" if
transferring to a diskette of another capacity. The diskette must
be formatted using the format(C) command before the data can be
transferred.
4. Follow the installation instructions given in the cover letter or
documentation file.
