Nope.

It's not the Xserver's fault. The problem is that we don't have drivers
which will let us change the settings on the video once we boot NetBSD. So
a config file doesn't make sense. :-)

XFree86 is the source for the X we use on all NetBSD platforms. We just
don't use the same Xserver as i386.

If you want to dive into this, please do! :-)

Take care,
