Hello Mark. There are a whole host of "unknowns" with the newly released VAXstation graphics - I believe they're not fully implemented yet on all the various models (maybe Matt Burke can confirm this). As you found out, the minimum supported VAX/VMS version for the VAXstation4000/VLC is VAX/VMS V5.5-2H4. There are also a number of system updates for this version (including a couple of mandatory ones and the Y2K updates). If you don't already have access to these, I can provide some that I grabbed prior to patch access being withdrawn by HP. Reply to me privately. Also the same goes for OpenVMS VAX V7.3. If you have updates, I'd try installing these too (same offer - I can provide the updates I have if you need them). Perhaps you should report any subsequent failures via the GitHub issues at https://github.com/simh/simh Tony -- Tony Nicholson <tony.nichol...@computer.org>
