Hi,
Has anyone ever run a Linux X Server under FreeBSD/Linux Emulation? I'm
trying to run the Voodoo Banshee server from Creative Labs. The reason I'm
trying to do this is because when I run XFree86 3.3.5, it screws up my
console display when I exit X. The Linux Server is looking to open /dev/tty9
and it can't. I tried putting a hard link from /dev/tty9 to /dev/ttyv9 but
when i started X it paniced the kernel :)
Is there any way first of all to fix 3.3.5 to work, and if not, to get the
Linux server to work? Is there any way to somehow mimic /dev/tty9 for it?
I'm running 4.0-CURRENT, and the console garble thing also happened on
3.2-RELEASE
Thanks in advance for your help.
Bill
