Date: 9 May 1995 23:06:53 GMT Organization: Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa Lines: 17 Message-ID: <3oosid$283@news.iastate.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: friley14.res.iastate.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 1.1N (X11; I; BSD/386 uname failed) X-URL: news:comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc Anyway, I am Using Xfree86 3.1.1 on NetBSD-current with pcvt, and here is my problem.. when X starts, it does not stant on the first unused virtual console, but rather on the next one. ie if you start it from ttyv0 it will be on ttyv1. this is a very annoying behavior. is there a fix for this?? also while im on the topic, i have another problem. just today i was logging out and back in(xdm) and tried to switch consoles, and all of the sudden it decided it was not gonna let me switch any more. so i had to reset. this is really annoying to have to do especially when other people are using the system.. well anyway, i would really appreciate if anyone could help me out. thanks in advance.. -chris csanady
