No.

Probably. But it needs to be completely written.

I don't think so.

Just wscons is probably about 1-2 weeks. Just make sure you cross-compile
your kernels or it might take months. :)

Not under NetBSD. Also note that the GPX is not restricted to the
Q-Bus so that config wise, this should attach like:
qdss* at uba? csr XXXX
dragon* at qdss?
wsdisplay at dragon?
lkkbd* at qdss?
wskeyboard at lkkbd?
This is so the VS3100 with GPX can do
dragon* at ibus?
