I got one of those a few weeks ago, for free. I also have no mouse
or keyboard, but I do know the pinout of the special DEC cable for
them. It's the same as the cable for the DEC 3000/600, which is
an Alpha machine (the 5000 is a MIPS box).

If you want to make up a cable, you'll need an LK201 keyboard (or an
LK401) and a VSXXX-AA mouse (or similar "round" mouse).

My machine runs NetBSD just fine.
