That wont help. You need a Jensen X server. Find the Linux/AXP
FAQ and look up Jensen X support. Some one has a suitable X server
binary available.
The Jensen was an early effort of DEC's in using the AXP chip in
what is basicly a PC. There are some 'oddities' in how the EISA bus
is tied back to the processor bus.
