No kidding! I've got a 3rd party framebuffer for my PDP-11/73, but
have never gotten it working, in part because I'm not sure what it
would take to hook up a monitor or even what type monitor would be
needed. In my case I've got drivers for RSX-11M, but they existed
for RT-11, and maybe other OS's.
One of these days I really need to figure out how to get a monitor attached.

My 11/73 has quite a small hard disk and small
memory, and I'd like
to keep it running RT-11 as it has some sort of colour frame-buffer
card and the software for that is RT-11 (though I've not figured it
out yet - must take the covers off and see exactly *what* the card
is!)
Sounds interesting!
