Guys,

I do beleive that this is correct, I grabbed a netbsdpmax.cf config file 
from ftp.unit.no and grabbed the whole X11R5 distribution and associated
patches, hacked the source a bit, then built the world. I produced a Xcfbpmax
binary + all the clients. After digging in the source the cfb is hardcoded 
to an 1024x864 resolution. 

I am trying to force it to 1280x1024 and will try the sfb with X tommorow.


One more question for the experts... xload complains that it can't get
symbols from /vmunix. Making a hard link from /netbsd --> /vmunix did
not help. Any ideas? Also I was wondering where the /proc filesystem is. 
I could not get mount_profs to work?


cheers,
scott
