I have a similar configuration I've worked with that belongs to
a Professor here on campus.  I too was dismayed to discover that
it didn't work (altho at the time I was told that there seemed
to be no reason why it shouldn't work).  The problem was eventually
solved on a temporary basis by swapping the 8*24 card with an
old 2-page display board that we had, running another Mac 2 page
display off of the 8*24 board, and waiting for A/UX 2.01.

I hope this problem is fixed in 2.01, because sometime I need to
get the inventories of cards straightened back out (altho so far
no one's quibbled since each machine is running!)
