[comp.sources.wanted] HP gpio info requested

My thesis advisor and I are hoping that someone in Netland can help with
the following problem:

Hewlett-Packard gave the school lots of neat UNIX boxes, but seem to
have neglected to give us any useful documentation.  (Useful = "explains
what I need to know now.")  I am trying to interface a robot to an 
HP 9000 series 300 computer via a GPIO board, using a C program.  HP
documentation mentions several C routines that look useful, such as
"gpio_set_ctl ()".  The problem is, no info is given on where the source
code for this routine is.  An older document stated that such code was
in the dvio library, but that isn't the case (now).

Any info would be greatly appreciated, and would earn you a footnote &
undying gratitude.
