>Description:
        None of the pmax config file mention "options UCONSOLE",
        so i needed to look at the tty sources to understand
        why xconsole only worked for root.
        This option is required at last for xconsole.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Try to run xconsole as user other than root on a GENERIC kernel.
>Fix:
	Add :
        options UCONSOLE  # allow non-root user to grab the console,
                          # required at last for xconsole
        In the GENERIC config file. Could be commented out, but should
        be mentionned.
