I have been trying to figure out how to compile a kernel with X support
built-in.  I am running X now.  I have downloaded and applied all of the 
patches.  I have added  UCONSOLE and XSERVER to the options in ../GENERICISA

I have  config GENERICISA   I go into the GENERICISA dir and do a   
make depend.  I then do a make.

I can see that  -DUCONSOLE and -DXSERVER has been added to the command line 
during the compile stage.

However,  grep -i "xmode" 386bsd  shows nothing!  The new kernel when 
rebooted, does not support X11.

I have manually stuck a  #define XSERVER in pccons.c, and it gives me a 
warning saying it has been already defined.  

What am I missing?
