i noticed this after a build from -current of about 24 hours ago: due to problems getting kde-2.2 to compile under -current, I am currently using windowmaker and doing a `exec startx >&/dev/null` to get into X without leaving a console shell open... the problem i have is that when i switched back to vty0 to test to see if removing VESA support solved the panic issue with syscons, i noticed that i still didn't have a login prompt over there, and pressing enter just gives a new line... i haven't tried a control-c, but i'd lay odds that it would kill the X session. i don't know if this is a tcsh issue or a getty issue.... i'll save my current session and do a conrol-c just to find out and post a followup message to this in a few minutes. jim -- ET has one helluva sense of humor!
