How about for getting the console window in X to actually act like a 
console?  On sun and sgi boxes, the -C option causes all output to what 
would be the equiv ttyv0 to show in that window.  Doesn't work in fbsd.  
So far as I can tell, it has something to do with the virtual console 
method of doing things.  Any way to have X and a valid login term reside 
on the same ttyvX?
