PMAZ-A scsi turbochannel card in NetBSD alpha or pmax

Can anyone comment on whether or not the PMAZ-A scsi
turbochannel card will work correctly, and is supported in
a DEC 3000 300 LX alpha or a DECstation 5000 25?
I found a card in the junque bin, and am thinking it might
be nice to run an external scsi tower with 6 drives on one
of the above machines.  Obviously, the alpha would be the
machine of choice if it works on that box.  But, I am
thinking the card did work and may have come from a
DECstation 5000/200 box, so it ought to work, if nothing
else, in the little 5000/25, maybe?

Any insights are appreciated.

Thanks

It will work in both.

I'm trying to port NetBSD to my cup of tea, but it keeps kernel panicking 
on refill. This is odd, because I ported it to my toaster and my bookcase 
easily enough and it survives bread- and book-replacement fine.

Any hints?

cricket/rrdtool/perl weirdness?

I'm using 1.6 on my 5000/240.

The perl module interface to rrdtool doesn't work at all.  (Verify by
manually running 'make test' in the right subdir of the work tree.)

Can anyone else confirm this?

I'm successfully using cricket and smokeping (both perl-based) with
the rrdtool from pkgsrc. However, I cant' build perl at all on a mipseb
machine, so maybe perl itself has some problems with mips ?

I forgot to add: on i386 and sparc systems

DEC Documentation Microfische anyone?

After being on the lists a while ago, I've seen people ask for docs all the
time. Is this anyuse to any of the developers?

Perhaps I should join again.

Emacs 20 test request

Hello.

I have a patch which I'm merging into the Pkgsrc tree.  I want to see
if this patch affects Emacs 20 (editors/emacs) on NetBSD/pmax.

According to the log of pkgsrc/editors/emacs/patches/patch-af
Rev. 1.4, NetBSD/pmax can't use the dump (unexec) feature, and some
tricks are needed to build/link a temacs executable.  I don't really
understand the details of the problem, but I wonder if Buildlink2 will
implicitly resolve a part of the fix.

The test procedure is,

		 1) Update whole Pkgsrc tree.
		 2) Move to pkgsrc/editors/emacs.
		 3) Do `make clean'.
		 4) Do `patch -p0 < .../the-patch-below'.
		 5) Do `make >log 2>errlog'.
		 6) Check if `./work/emacs-20.7/src/emacs -q -nw'
                    works.
		 7) Send me the `log' and `errlog' files.

Note that Emacs don't work with X if the executable is linked with
ld(1) Ver. 2.13.2.1 or later.
