Subject: Anything strange about a uVAX 3100-M38?

Over the holidays, I managed to get my uVAX 3100 M38 up and running on
NetBSD, with a vt100 monitor.  It seems to do fine, but I was wondering
about some things.   Specifically, are there any oddities or quirks I
should be aware of on that particular hardware?  I have a VX8(?) 8 plane
color board for it,  but I could not seem to get that to work.  What specific
monitors (mono or color) are required with that board, and does NetBSD
support those properly, yet?  And that mystical little switch on the back,
next to the idiot lights, needs to go up or down to use the graphics board?

The machine has one 4M memory board (the bottom 4M board seems to be missing).
What memory boards can fill it out to 16M or 32M and where might I find one?

Thanks all, and Happy New Year!

Bob
