We are contemplating purchase of a display device for which we will be
able to obtain an already written device driver for 4.3 BSD on a VAX 750.

What will be necessary to convert this device driver code to run on
a MicroVax under Ultrix? Is it a trivial (change a few addresses) or
hard (reinvent the wheel) kind of a task.

Many thanks for your responses.
