I wish I had better news... I'm not working on that... Brad is working
on a new adb system that might actually work on a few more machines--I
don't know if the IIvx will be one of those. I am working on the Q700.
Currently trying to get a cross-compilation environment going. I think
the internal video should carry over from the Quadra to at least some of
the other machines with internal video.
It will (realistically) be a while before the Q700 is running...
Basically, my plan of attack is:
* Cross-compile environment (in progress)
* '040 support
* If necessary, some internal video.
* NCR 53C96 driver (SCSI)
* If necessary, ADB.
* Ethernet
