Hi

I have set the BusID, without it X doesn't start at all. With it I get what 
looks like some kind of text based screen saver. 80x25 rectangular blocks in 
random changing colours. Unfortunately it isn't pretty.

Can anyone tell me if I can use 1200 firmware on a 5305? I don't see 5000 
series firmware on ftp.digital.com.
I have 5.2 so maybe an upgrade to 5.3 and then 6.0 would help.

Thanks,
