I think I saw this problem listed on the XFree86 mailing lists. If I
remember correctly,(this may not be the case) this has something to do with
security levels set during installation. Again, check XFree mailing list for a
more definitive answer.

After a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.2 on a Pentium 233Mhz system with an ATI
Mach64 card, I was able to sucessfully start the X server from both the root
account and my own user account. However, when I booted the machine today,
and I tried 'startx', I recieved the following error message:
Server Error:
xf86OpenConsole: KDENABIO failed (Operation not permitted)
What can I do to remedy this problem?
