Vaxstation 4000/60 DECwindows

[Marco Rauhut]

That solved my IVP not a workstation problem... Thanks!

But now while testing ivp told me can`t open Display.

If i start the Vaxstation in the boot system i can use the hole Monitor.
But when VMS started there only 25 usable lines left on Monitor.

What i have done is that i have installed VMS with the alternate Console 
mode via RS232.
After that i connect a VGA monitor with a sync seperation adapter and a 
keyboard and mouse.

Remember VMS the install Environment?
