This summarize well other replies I got (thanks to Pierre Antoine and
Geert Jan de Groot). 

But I'm not happy with this reply. I suppose that this toolkit is ``only''
an interface between the device driver (that I already have) and my
(futures) programs; like any simple comm library just is an interface
between the bios and user's program.

I hoped that someone wrote his own interface. This souldn't violate
Sun's copyright on the driver and would be cheaper.

Any pointers ? -- Thanks in advance
