I scanned FEP0:>I328-test.flod.24 and ran 3 of the 4 tests (didn't run the single location test) and no errors were signalled. For Test Main Memory I did both the default Checkerboard pattern and the (very time-consuming) Walking-Bit pattern. It's nice that the keyboard happens to be working decent right now for the testing. It must be the monitor that is screwed.... The previous owner said he mostly ran it on a remote machine via X using the remote machine's keyboard and mouse. So I've got lots of printed documentation and if the thing works long enough so that I am able to figure out how to configure it on my site to boot with the monitor powered off and automatically start the X-server and networking stuff then I should be fine. If anyone has got a working monitor they could part with, I'm definitely interested (_Especially_ if I can't get the X stuff working. I'd love to be able to use this cool Symbolic's keyboard anyways....) I'll follow up in a few days I guess. Thanks, Christopher
