Article-I.D.: sdcsvax.2326 Posted: Tue Sep 14 10:27:52 1982 Received: Thu Sep 16 02:20:00 1982 References: sri-unix.3199 I'm sorry to report that I will NOT be doing a VDH driver for 4.1aBSD. The reason is not the technical difficulty, but politics -- the facility where I worked was transfered (over my protests) to the control of technically incompetent people whose ethics I find questionable. I had no choice but to resign my post. I still hope someone will do it, but I'm afraid it will not be me. MO is wrong on one point, though -- we found the VDH very reliable, once the hardware pecularities were understood. Both the C and the E versions are bitches to drive, but we never had hardware problems with the E and only twice with the C (over a period of about eight years). I wish the CPU had been that reliable.....
