Michael:
Allow me to inject my 4 cents worth here…the reason for your P/OS
games running on one CPU and not the other is because of the
differences in the addresses of the video cards; the 350 and 380 are
entirely different. I happen to know because I wrote one of those games
myself in 1982, before the 380 was in production.
The three "standard" games passed from hand to hand that are PRO-350
specific are the DECman, DECipede and DECLander games. There are
versions for the PRO-380 but these versions were only available from
DEC's internal network. There are a handful of people who do have these
and other games for the PRO, some in both versions.
If you're interested in getting the rest of the P/OS games for both
platforms drop me a line.

P.S. I can also help you with your Kermit problems and send
electronically both the "BIG" Kermit handbook and the PDP11 specific
version.
