I doubt it... I don't think there are aspects of the kernel configurations the  might render X unoperational, although if you configer it wrongly some devices  may not work. I think  there should  be a compiled kernel or module that includes the NE2000 in the package, but I'm not so sure about SB16 and  at  any rate it's a better  idea to make sure your kernel and drivers suit your hardware and uses for the machine. There's a detailed configuration process when you compile, and the program tells you what each option does at each stage... So don't worry :)
