- I have a Boca ET4000-based SVGA card that I intend to run X386 with, under
- any and/or all of the following UNIX variants: Linux, 386BSD, Intel
- SYSVR4.0.3(should be same as ISC early ship). I also have several fixed
- frequency monitors that I do not have specs for. One type is from and old
- Daisy ecad system and has resolution of 1024 or so by 852. The other type
- is from a DEC VasXtation II GPX ( the monitor model number i VR290-DA )).
- The first has 4 bnc in, while the DEC only has 3 (sync on G). I would also
- like any info on how to get the DEC to work with an older SUN framebuffer.
-
- Has anyone got one of these working with X on a PC-class machine running
- UNIX? Any hints or more detailed tech info would be appreciated. For
- someone nearby who can solve the problem I can definitely give you one of
- the Daisy monitors (I have two). I would have to pull some strings to give
- away one DEC and have the other for myself, however. I also have a big
- Eagle disk that needs a good home.(not sure if it works, it's also from the
- Daisies, it used to work)
