System: NetBSD houserat.hhhh.org 1.4P NetBSD 1.4P (HOUSE-RAT) #4: Sun May 21 14:56:20 PDT 2000 perseant@houserat.hhhh.org:/usr/src/sys.1208/arch/pmax/compile/HOUSE-RAT pmax

>Description:
I have a DS5000/200, "house-rat", with a PMAG-D and no other
framebuffer.  This configuration used to work well last year, but when I
dragged it out again recently and upgraded the kernel to a more current
-current, it no longer would even print the copyright on the screen at
boot (though it did change the size of the cursor from the PROM cursor
to the px cursor).  It ran Just Fine with 1.4P (sources from 1999-12-08
or thereabout).

This is house-rat:

>How-To-Repeat:
Try to boot a system so configured.

>Fix:
This fixes this problem for me.  I don't know if it's the best solution;
in particular I don't understand why the "cn_tab = &promcd;" was moved up
to begin with, so I don't know what else might break with this patch.
All the same it would be nice to have PX support in 1.5 too....
