    I have the ten of ALPHA STATION 255 and one 
ALPHA SERVER 4000. In the server, my OS version
is 6.2-1H3.  The Decwindows motif's version is 
1.2-4, the New Desktop is used.
    But our station can't run the decwindows.The message
is "no graphic device not found".
    The station graphic card is PBXGB-AA.

1783.1Configuring TGA2 Under V6.2-1H3XDELTA::HOFFMANSteve, OpenVMS EngineeringTue Apr 29 1997 14:1210
   Set SYSGEN parameter WINDOW_SYSTEM to 1 in SYS$SYSTEM:MODPARAMS.DAT,
   re-AUTOGEN, and reboot.  Also consider acquiring and applying the
   current DECwindows Motif patches from DIGITAL's Internet patch area.
   The PBXGB-AA PowerStorm 3D30 TGA2 controller also requires a driver
   first shipped with OpenVMS in V7.1 -- for the V6.2-1H3 release, one
   must acquire and install the Open3D kit.  (No Open3D license PAK is
   required for 2D operations -- make sure you install the correct
   version of Open3D for the controller and for the OpenVMS version.)
