Hi!

I was installing NetBSD/pmax 1.5_ALPHA2 on my DECstation 5000/240 and
noticed that console support for PMAG-E was working nicely, but there is
as I understand no way to run X on that card yet? 

I have setup my DS5000/240 to boot on the PMAG-E for all console work, but
I use a PMAGB-BA for X work, it's works nice but it's a pitty to have a 3D
24-bit card doing nothing more the print syslog messages :)

And two 19" monitors do take up some desktop space, so my question is, how
far away is X support for PMAG-C,D,E,F?
