Oh well, I now have 6 VAXstation 4000 VLC's, and a VAXstation 3100/M38.
Are the M38's supported ?, I think it has a KA42 (?) CPU from memory.

Does anyone know of any other method that may be used to use a 4000 VLC as
an X-terminal ?

If anyone knows of anything, please remember to CC the reply to me, as I
am not a member of the port-vax list (but may do so soon).

Thanks in advance.
