Since man pcip isnt in 3.5.1, I understand it as a suggestion with
4.* on this laptop ;-)

It is an old MITAC 486, Color, Sound, with a certain version of the
Cyrix chip, that is recognised by most RELEASES as a 686, and some of
them bomb, 2.2.8 and 4.*, 3.5.1 runs ok. Couldnt find anything in LINT,
a lot of things on Cyrix chips, but not my case. (It is an ordinary 486.)

Playing mp3s isnt so much a problem, I really like midi2cs etc
(and I want PLIP, which isnt yet in NetBSD).

Thanks,

H.
