Are there plans to automating X's configuration?  I got X working.
Thanks for the help.  I now have netbsd running X.  The below is for 
documentation purposes, followed by a simple question.

Thanks, I think I definitely needed to configure my mouse properly.
I still can't get X up,
/etc/var/log/XFree86.0.log says Fatal server error: can't switch 
keyboard to raw mode.  Enable support for it in the kernel or use for 
example:

Option   "Protocol"   "wskbd"
Option   "Device"     "/dev/wskbd0"
---------------------------------------------------------------
I found out this pertains to a bug:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/2004/06/14/0001.html

Are there plans to fix this?

I do edit XF86Config but startx now tells me:
ksh: startx: not found
and
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx tells me:
xauth: not found
xinit:  not found

Yes, I do have startx in my $HOME path in ~/.profile.

I had to exit because ksh as # and $ was not accepting many commands 
such as reboot.  I logged back in, and everything seems fine.  Weird.

startx
Config Error:
cannot open "dev/wskbd0"
(EE) Unable to determine the screen layout
(EE) Error partsing the config file

Fatal server error:
no screens found.

So I changed
Option   "Device"     "/dev/wskbd0"
to
Option   "Device"     "/dev/wskbd"

  and "startx" from $ works!

But exiting wm doesn't return one to console.  I get a black screen.  I 
can see why some documents recommend installing xdm, gdm, or kdm.

Is it alright for the wm to just reboot or halt straight from X thus 
killing X and the wm ungracefully?
