I've seen those PCI FDDI cards on eBay, but the information I've
found doesn't say whether they'd work with Solaris 8/9 or not.

I've got an NPI PCI FDDI card that I can't find any information
on that I've been meaning to try in my AXi.  It's a guess since
the Sun SBUS FDDI cards I have are NPI cards.
