Anyone care to elaborate on the current interface for X to allow
access to the vga. For example, getting access to the i/o ports,
gaining access to the console, etc.., under FreeBSD and NetBSD.

I re-compiled XS3 under NetBSD-0.9 and no one has been able to
run XS3 because the kernel failed to grant me access to the
vga's i/o ports. 

Just a bit in flame and frustrated over here.
