   Hi,

   I am trying to compile X11R6 for a NetBSD/i386 1.0 machine and am having 
   no luck.

   Does anyone know of any special tricks to get the X11R6 source to compile?

Start with X11R6 patchlevel 12 + XFree86 3.1.2

Edit /usr/X11R6/xc/config/cf/xf86site.def.  Change "YES" to "NO" for all
the

#define XF86<foo>Server          YES

That you do not have the graphics card to use.

change

 *
#define XFree86ConsoleDefines   -DSYSCONS_SUPPORT -DPCVT_SUPPORT
 */

to
 *
 */
#define XFree86ConsoleDefines   -DPCVT_SUPPORT -DPCCONS_SUPPORT

copy /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_ioctl.h to /usr/include/machine

cd into /usr/X11R6/xc type

rm Makefile
make -f Makefile.ini Makefile
make World

Let me know if this does not work.
