SCO == Santa Cruze Operation, a Xenix distributor, and if I recall
correctly, the current owner of the System V Unix sources.
The *name*, Unix, is owned by a consortium that runs a test on
your operating system and "awards" the permission to call your OS
Unix to those that pass, at considerable some expense, I suspect.
Compatibility of SCO Unix drivers drivers with Linux is doubtful.
I don't see how name and address compatibility (necessary for
linking the driver to the kernel) is possible.
