Reed) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: Console problems with X and PCVT driver Date: 9 Dec 1995 16:51:27 GMT Organization: Texas A&M Department of Computer Engineering, College Station, TX Lines: 16 Message-ID: <4aceqf$982@news.tamu.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: sprinkle.cs.tamu.edu I compiled support for the PCVT driver a while back, and the other day I noticed the following message in the xconsole window: Couldn't open console This never showed up when I was using the sc0 driver, and I did specify "options XSERVER" in the kernel config when I recompiled for the new console driver. I'm using FreeBSD v2.0.5 with v3.20 of the PCVT driver. Any ideas why this problem is occuring? Also, I noticed that a good number of console messages, such as 'su' notifications, are going to ttyv0. Is this supposed to happen? -- -Brad Reed mbreed@tamu.edu http://http.tamu.edu:8000/~mbr4786/
