   Ah.  Ok, I get it now.  If you had a different/better
display (or an oscilloscope), then you might be able to get
more details on what's wrong with the signal.

   Again, not a very complete description of what you did.
Note that these DCL scripts (DECW$DEVICE_CONFIG_GQ.COM,
DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM) are only DCL scripts, and you
can add "write sys$output XXX" commands to them for debugging
purposes.  You might see something different between the
first start and the later restart.

   I see that DECW$DEVICE_CONFIG_GQ.COM looks at
f$getdvi("GQA0", "DEVDEPEND"), and may adjust some parameters
based on the result.  That datum might be interesting.

   Still wondering.
