   This is for the DEC AXP150.

   An EISA machine with an Adaptec 1742 controller; there is
   supposedly no X support, and a number of other problems.

Uh, hello?

1) As far as I know, neither the machine Aled mentioned, nor the
machine the original port work was done on have an EISA bus.  Perhaps
you're thinking of the Linux port.

2) If you want to know the state of that port, you should *ask*.  And
don't ask me; I don't have much to do with it.
