When I tried to do it it bombed out compiling the server. Specifically, the directory server/ddx/i386/common was where I has problems. It seems the code wants to make some undefined ioctl()'s. I believe that these ioctl()'s are defined if codrv is compiled into the kernel, but I was under the impression that Xfree86-1.3 would work if only the pccons driver was available. I would include the codrv driver into my kernel, but since NetBSD-0.9 has changed the way things are done in device drivers, codrv won't just plug in and play. Is this a problem with Xfree86-1.3, NetBSD-0.9 or me? Steve
