DECwindows does support the QVSS however so at the end of the boot process you should get the graphical login screen in the QVSS window.
I know some others were asking so for the record to get DECwindows running you need to install the DECwindows kit and the appropriate licence (DW-MOTIF). You also need to set the WINDOW_SYSTEM parameter in SYSGEN. This has three settings: 0 - No Window System 1 - DECwindows 2 - VWS If you want a VAX that supports the QVSS as a console then you'll need to use the VAXstation I or VAXstation II simulators (microvax1, microvax2).
