I have been having trouble getting the new npx-0.4 stuff to work.  I
have followed the instructions but when I boot up the kernel stops
waiting for npx0 to interrupt.  If I wait long enough (or hit a key?) it
will bring up a message saying that npx0 never interrupted.

I have also installed the other two patches that go along with this
(com-0.2 and intr-0.0).  Here is my hardware:
  Mitsubishi 386dx/16 with 80387dx/16
  8.5 megs of megs of memory (2.5 is 16-bit, but that shouldn't matter).
  16450 uarts
  110 meg hard drive
  paradise vga
  
don't really think much else will matter.  Any clues?

thanks,
alex
