Hello,

	The following is what happened when I try to run XFree86.  I am using
the binary from agate.  I have applied the latest patchkit, and recompiled 
the kernel with the addition of "options XSERVER,UCONSOLE" to MYCONFIG.

	The kernel runs fine, except that it could not find the file 
"./X11-unix".   

	Please help.  Any suggestion is most welcomed.

Yek Chong
