I've found myself the owner of a Digital KZPSC-XB card. Just the card. :)
No manuals, no nothing else. (Not even a dimm for the card.) Its a 3
port SCSI RAID card that is supposed to be, at least kinda, supported
by the mlx driver.

I've got a couple of problems: The card doesn't seem to be probed
either by the SRM or detected by the mlx driver. The kernel sees the
card:

  pci0: <mass storage> at device 9.0 (no driver attached)

And that message goes away if I boot the system with out the card. The
output of "ls -l" in the SRM doesn't show any additional or missing
devices when booted with or without the card.

With out a manual, and with none quickly found via google, I'm kinda
stumped. 

Might anybody have any suggestions, other than long PCI cards making
secure door stops?  :)
