Hi folks

I would like to run X on a DEC3000-700. I many articles I read
that this must be possible. But before I have to get access to its native
keyboard and monitor at turbochannel.
What I did until now:

1.) Installed 1.5 on a DEC3000-700 over serial console.
2.) made and installed TCWSCONS-Kernel (without any changes in the settings)
3.) set in rc.conf "wscons=yes"

after reboot I got the message (on tc-monitor)
"consinit: unable to init concole on keyboard and TURBOchannel slot 0x1.
Using serial console"

then the system switched to serial console. Can anybody tell a newbie, what
he missed?
Which settings should I change?

Thanks
Tobias
