Yes, such driver exists but you remembered the name incorrectly.
The right machine is not available now for this service. So I put
the files in this machine, cs.hut.fi (sauna.hut.fi) available
with anonymous ftp in directory pub/minix.

There are also a couple of other packages of symbolic links
implementations. All of them (also VGA driver) are for Minix
version *1.3* but it should should be possible to upgrade them
for version 1.5.

The packages are created as programming exercises in Operating
Systems course so unfortunately not all the documents are
available as files and some of them are in finnish :-(
