Now that I have NetBSD up and running on both a MicroVax and VaxStation,
the only fly in the ointment is the VS's monitor and mouse lying around
unused. I assume that for NetBSD to support X on the Vax would require
both a kernel driver and a suitable X server. Is anyone working on this
area[0], or do most people connect to their boxes from X capable
machines, thus making graphical support a very low priority?

[0] I would volunteer to work on this area myself, but for a massive
lack of experience - I'm only used to application programming, not
system stuff - I've read the "Design and Implementation ..." book, but
that's about it.
