I'm looking for hints on how to access the Decstation's framebuffer, bypassing X. I'd also like to know how to get a signal or poll when the vertical retrace is occurring. I know how to do this with one line on a Sun, but I'm not familiar with the Decs or X. Much thanks. -- David Honig "Tyranny and despotism can be excercised by many, more rigorously, more vigorously, and more severely than by one." ---Andrew Jackson
