Hi Mark,
I just tried the updated code for the QVSS display, for which there were issues with the
mouse.
The network boot setup that I had to boot a real VAXStation with VMS 5.5-2, already worked
with the microvax2, and now indeed the mouse works too in DECWindows!
Thank you!

Hi Erik,
Thanks for giving this a try. No extra configuration steps should be necessary.
Please create an issue at:
https://github.com/simh/simh/issues and outline your problem.
Include the output of SHOW VERSION from within the simulator.

Hi Mark and others trying QVSS support,
Compiling a microvax2 with the QVSS display under Ubuntu on a laptop was
successful. Booting an image for my VAXStation 3100 with device XQA0 was
also successful and it was possible to login at the DECWindows login screen
and the usual windows appeared - great!!!
Unfortunately, the mouse does not work (moving and clicking), although
with ctrl-right-shift the mouse releases. This is not really an issue with the
QVSS display, and it could be because I used a VAXStation 3100 image; but
should a mouse be configured in simh's initialization file?

Hi Sampsa,
How timely of you to observe this today.
Just last night I got code pieces from Matt Burke (the guy at
9track.net) to add VCB01 (QVSS) support to the simh codebase for the
MicroVAX I and MicroVAX II simulators.
I'm in the process of merging that code and adding the necessary
build mechanisms to the makefile as we speak.
This will be cleaned up and visible at
https://github.com/simh/simh
in at most a couple of days....
For folks who build their own binaries, the latest github code has a
VAXStation I and VAXStation II with the MonoChrome QVSS video
capabilities.
sim> SET CPU MODEL=VAXSTATION
enables the video subsystem.
The VAXStation I has a limit of 4MB of RAM, the VAXStation II has a limit of
16MB.
The makefile should just build the right thing if the development support
for libSDL is installed on your platform.
Please provide bug reports and/or other feedback with issues created
at
https://github.com/simh/simh/issues
There is a glitch in my scripts which build and package the windows binaries
which is failing to build the simulators with video support, so folks who count
on the Windows Binaries will have to wait until I fix this.
Thanks.
