The 6153 is an monitor that is connected to an APA8 card. The standard server
with AOS only supports the APA16 card. Just recompile the server for an APA8,
and everything should work fine. 

I would advice to use the X11R4 server instead of the X11R3 wich comes with
the AOS distribution, the new one is really fast. There is no need to run AIX.
