Colour or monochrome? What about the 412, which I think might be more
relevant to the actual goal of this project?

I do, but the guy who wrote it had only the information he was able to
gather from reverse-assembly and heavy pharmaceutical use. I'm impressed
at what he was able to learn (and it helped me at least get the NVRAM in
my 310CD reconditioned well enough to run the machine), but there are a
few details I still need that he couldn't provide, since his test
environment was a single 310 with monochrome graphics.

I need some information about two bytes in the NVRAM which relate to
graphics option.

I do, in fact, have several releases of DG/UX on both QIC tape and CD-ROM.
I'd be interested in trading a copy of one for a dump of the NVRAMs. I can
tell you how to get the dump, too.

ok
