I'm running NetBSD 1.1 on a Mac IIsi.  XMar95 works
great but X.950912 gives me an error message like:
/dev/grf2 not found
Now I have a second video card (other than
the built-in video, both set for 1-bit video)
A RasterOps ColorBoard 208.  Under XMar95 it uses
/dev/grf0 and /dev/grf1 I believe... Is this a bug then??  

MAKEDEV won't make me a /dev/grf2 and simply touching the
file /dev/grf2 just produces an error msg saying in can't
access the device.

Help.

Thanks,
