What kind of video card do you have in the IIx.  Some video cards cause
problems because we currently have no way to service video interrupts in
a generic fashion and one can (on the mac) ignore all or none of the
slot interrupts--you can't pick and choose.

This area really needs some work.  If there's a bored hacker out there
who wants to contribute to the NetBSD effort, this would be an excellent
place to relieve your boredom...  ;-)
