Really?
I've not paid a whole lot of attention lately. I knew with 1.4.x we could
get the Xserver to compile and run on the monochrome VAXstations (albeit
buggily). And then I thought I'd heard whispers of people getting mouse
and keyboard support working. Is this the case, and it's just not ready
for 1.5?
