Primarily, Ethernet and X. Ethernet first: I don't seem to have a device file for my Ethernet card. This makes things a it harder, to put it mildly. At boot, I get this message: nubus0: s:13 t:4 "MacCon Ethernet, Asante Technologies, Inc." not configured That about sums it up, I'd say. Can anyone help me out on this one? X: I've installed the monochrome X tarball available from (er...) somewhere for the Mac68k version of NetBSD. I get a message about __sys_errorlist or something similar, and then startx fails. I think I have an old library somewhere. Does anyone have a newer version of ny of the necessary libraries? I think libm.so might be the culprit. Side note: I'm a Sys Admin, not a programmer, so please be gentle in your responses. :) many thanks! -David
