(Okay, okay... so this IS my umpteenth posting this week! ;-)

just became the proud owner of (finally) an ega card (SBD) and 
a multisync (NEC multisync GS) for my Sperry IT. (running 2.3.0-L)

a) has anyone had any problems with hardware/ROM compatability
   between the computer and the display? (i've noticed quite a
   few IT owners posting here!)  i am getting an NMI in boot
   (system mode) that's non-fatal (i just ignore it) and believe
   it to be the display (possible the ram on the card)

b) does anyone know of a driver/terminfo/etc... method to get 
   the 44 line ega mode?  (love to have my favorite editor in it!)

				 we don need no steenkin' PATCHES!
