    I downloaded the ss-95.09.12 netbsd kernel from gregorio, and
it worked - with 57x80 raster console.   Worked sorta-OK with
TERM=sun and stty rows 57 cols 80, actually.
    However, the question now is what device should be used for X.
Earlier I used /dev/pm0 (symlink /dev/mouse -> pm0), but that device
no longer exists.  Does any of the new devices support the same
ioctl/mmap etc interface as pm0 did? If not, is this planned?  I would
have guessed /dev/fb0 would be the natural choice, but I couldn't get
it to work - I'll probably try again a bit harder next weekend.

Yours,
