Sony have kept the programming information for the CXD1847A & CXD1947Q
i.Link host controllers secret.  The chips seem to be obsolete now.
Later Sony VAIOs have/had CXD3222 OHCI compliant i.Link host
controllers.

A quick Google indicates Linux, OpenBSD & NetBSD are all in the same
position - with no drivers for these parts.  So the only route to
getting a driver is to reverse engineer the Windows 98 drivers.  :-(
