Looking at the ROS index it would appear to me that the package was orphaned a long while ago (in the electric/diamondback era). In fact, it looks like the svn server they were hosting it with is in fact down.
I tried to google around for it a bit, but was not able to find the code anywhere... So, unfortunately, there's not much that can be done in this situation.
My advice? I'd look to see if your linux image is loading the kernel driver (lsmod will not show the module s626 if the driver is already installed, which might be the case as it mentions in the README for the driver installer). Next, I'd check to see if you have any special devices (they will appear as /dev/s626a{0,1,2,3} according to the same README). If not, I'd just follow those instructions and proceed onward.
Next, you'll likely have to reimplement the ROS functionality, since I don't think you'll be able to find the source, and, even if you do, it will need a good amount of rewriting anyway (since it is so old and ROS has changed so much). The good news is that there are plenty of resources to help you with that!
Best of luck.
