} Actually, our "xsrc", which is XFree86-based, does in fact run on the VAX :-)
This wasn't at all obvious to me when I looked around on
<http://www.netbsd.org/>. I looked at
<http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/vax/models.html> and it appeared to claim
that all the graphics hardware on the various models was unsupported by
NetBSD/vax. Support for the VS2000 and VS3100 monochrome graphics console
is mentioned on <http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/vax/index.html>, but it says
"No X yet, though". I also didn't see any mention of X11 support in the
NetBSD/vax FAQ.
