(x11 terminal) C3253A HP Envizex P-Series
Up for sale is a X-Terminal made by Hewlett Packard in 1995.
Tested, in perfect working conditions!!!
cpu: i960 @ 33Mhz (it's the fastest available on Envizex v1)
ram: 48MB (builtin + 16+16+8, the first two sims need to be equal)
rom: none (sorry, It doesn't have any font-rom, it loads fonts from tftp/NFS)
vram: 2MB
lan: 10Mbps BASET RJ45 (it also comes with an AUI port on the back)
kb/mouse: common PS/2 (F12 is a special key, but Envizex works on
common keyboards, HIL keyboards are also supported)
Media: floppy 3.5",1.44MB
Software included!
It comes with all the documentation, configuration-scripts, and
startup for Linux (sorry, I don't have HPUXv10.20/v11, I can't
test/adapt scrips).
The machine is perfectly working, it supports the X Display Manager
Control Protocol (XDMCP), you just need to power on your hardwired
terminal and be greeted with a login prompt. This purpose is easy to
be accomplished on HP terminals, especially if you use NFS instead of
tftpboot.
HP-net-stations can boot using either Network File System or Trivial
FTP, with NFS being the preferred method it's simpler.
During the final phase of startup, the bootup screen disappears and
the X station loads bin/modules.ld, which tells what can be optionally
loaded (but not executed), and then starts the X session by executing
the application that was specified by the user on config/autoexec.cfg
It supports all of the following:
XDM login
VUE
CDE Lite (its panel appears similar to the one you can see on HPUX)
mwm (simple windows manager)
twm (simple windows manager)
If you see one of first three login screens in the above list, you
just need to enter your login account and password.
80 euro + s/h
