The problem is not with number of VMs, but that console of VM (where kdb enters to) is available only on the tty running bhyve(1), which is a root terminal.

I have nothing against if someone, who speaks tex fluently, walks through my slides and commits directly to svn anything that makes them better. Also, can anyone give me an advice on how can I make embedded notes for lecturer? What I'd like to achieve is that I keep the slides material and notes in one file, but after 'make' I got a pdf for presentation and a text file with notes for me. -- Totus tuus, Glebius.
