Try leaving it away. Workstation support is the X server and such stuff, if
i got this right. So it tries to fire up the X server on boot. But it should
be usable even with workstation support installed. I would look into the
startup files, but i just crashed VMS. It takes about half an hour to shut down
for now... Maybe i overloaded it a bit :-)

so long... Michael
