	I seem to remember that some 3.2 drivers work, but those that 
	use some very 3.2 dependent stuff don't link in(like the
	SunRiver driver that uses the V.3.2 Console driver) and others
	will compile in yet PANIC the machine on initialization(like
	the newer V.3.2 Computone Driver, some older versions actually	
	worked on some machines).

	We have used and support the Stallion Boards and Computone 
	boards. Both Stallion and Computone have V.4 drivers which 
	we have integrated into Dell UNIX V.4. Perhaps a phone call to 
	Computone (404-475-2725) would yield a diskette with the V.4 driver 
	you need.

	I don't know, maybe Tim Wright in the Dell UK office has tried it?
