When I try to bring up A/UX 2.0 on my IIx with a SuperMac Spectrum 8 Series II
video board, it gets to the "Welcome to A/UX; Launching..." stage and
freezes up.  I pull the 8/II and drop in an old Apple video board, and
A/UX comes up fine.  So, I guess it's the SuperMac board (which, incidentally,
works fine with MacOS).

Has anyone had such problems with alien video, know how such an
incompatibility could arise, or what I can do about it?  Must I abandon
my fancy 19" video system?
