The question is rather if anybody uses Transputers anymore :) Last time I checked (summer 1995 ?), I used the driver on FreeBSD 2.0.X with little or no problems. On a 486/33 with ISA boards it had a maximum transfer speed of 400-500KB/s unidirectional. The driver does not use interrupts or DMA; it should have a working select(), though.
