Hi there,
I've tried unsuccessfully to reproduce this problem on a 4.0-CURRENT
(today) machine running XFree86-3.3.3.1 .
Three questions:
1) Are you sure /dev/ttyva exists?
2) Are you sure you followed the instructions at
http://www.freebsd.org/~yokota/sc_update.txt for switching to the new
console and keyboard drivers?
If you can't upgrade to a recent CURRENT and the latest XFree86-3.3.3.1,
then go ahead and send us the information Kazu asked you for... dmesg
output and the contents of xdm-errors.
If you're not having a problem any more, please let us know what you did
to fix the problem so that we can close your problem report.
Ciao,
Sheldon.
