Perhaps you can help me identify this box that I found at a surplus auction.
It says on it:
Visual Technology Model: TX100M
When powered up it says it is an X terminal, but it has no X Server 
installed. It has to boot from Tftp, or the sort. 
My main problem is, I can't find any reference to this thing. I have no idea 
what software it runs.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

I know that HP's version of this box (Envizex, Entria, and 700/RX
X-Terminals) were diskless and bootp'd from an HP9000 UNIX box over the
network.

Referring to
http://www2.computerwoche.de/heftarchiv/1992/19920207/a102767.html (it's
in German, sorry...), this box uses a M68k CPU. After switching it on,
what can you sniff off the network? I think you'll only need to give it
an IP address and its X host, possibly also a firmware image.

[parisc-linux] OT: C180 has to go...

[Derek Engelhaupt]

Hey all,

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this, please let me know.  My C360
is on it's way and the C180 has to go.  No room for both.  If anyone is
interested in it let me know *off the list* or it's going off to Ebay. 
This machine was originally bought off Ebay and the case was damaged. 
It has been replaced so the product number off the tag in the back says
it's a C200, but it is indeed a C180.  I'm not looking for much in the
way of asking price because shipping can tend to be high on this heavy
a box (about 60 lbs. packaged).  It has been running Debian for awile
now with no issues.  PDC firmware is at the latest.

Memory: 384MB
Drives: (2) internal ST34371WD Seagate 4.3GB with HP firmware
CDROM: None
Graphics Card:  None (but has built in EG card that needs the EVC
                adapter - not included)
Terminators:  Will include both an SE and F/W terminator
No keyboard or mouse (need them for the new one)


Anyway thanks for your time.

derek
