Ah - thanks.
I was always wondering why I got "not graphics capable
console" with pccons, but X worked.

Where is it, the new interface?
Is "wscons" a candidate?
Btw, are there copyright issues or why is it only used in

on one of my i386 boxes where I'm trying to get rid of
"BROKEN_INDIRECT_CONFIG" and non-bus.h
drivers.
