>Description:
	The default value of isdn_fsdev (isdnd's controlling terminal when it's
run in fullscreen mode) is set to /dev/ttyv4 in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. Therefore
, if the user doesn't modify it in /etc/rc.conf, isdnd attachs itself to /dev/tt
yv4, which is used later by getty(8), so, when getty is started, isdnd can no lo
nger read from its controlling terminal.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Configure the ISDN kernel drivers and isdnd, put isdn_enable="YES" in
/etc/rc.conf, do not define isdn_fsdev in /etc/rc.conf, and reboot.

>Fix:

	I think it may be safer to set the default value of isdn_fsdev to "NO",
in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, and let isdnd run in daemon mode unless the user specified a tty.
