I edited my /etc/ttys file in Easy Editor and then saved and exited (or 
so I thought) to enable kdm.  When I rebooted, my machine would hang.  I 
went back into /etc/ttys and noticed that the file is now empty!!

What is the best way to replace the file.  I'm not aware of a default 
file anywhere.  Will I have to manually recreate it, and if so, where do 
I get the data?

Thanks.
