	Greetings,
	Thanks to all who replied to my request. The original request
was:

	Greetings,
	I had a DECstation 3100 with a color monitor running
Ultrix-4.4. After I had to return this machine to Digital on a trade-in,
I decided to move these system disks to a DECstation 5000/240 with a
monochrome monitor. Before moving the disks I build a 5000 kernel. The
machine boots fine, but the X server won't start. /usr/adm/X0msgs
contains the re-occurring message:

start UWS V4.4 X server release 5000 Mon Feb 12 08:55:24 1996
couldn't open device

Does anyone know what device I am missing? The 5000 kernel config file
is given below. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

To which Dan Riley replied (and it worked):

Hi Doug,

Mouse and keyboard devices are different between different models.
Do

cd /dev
rm -f mouse tty0[01]
./MAKEDEV scc0

If the system has an MX graphics adapter (PMAG-AA), you may also have
to edit /etc/ttys to start /usr/bin/X11/Xws_R4, not /usr/bin/X11/Xws
(yes, they have no R5 server for the MX).
