	The syscons driver in FreeBSD 2.2.1 off the CD seems to have a
problem. I tried to turn on the screensaver (stars) in sysconfig like I
normally do but it doesn't work anymore. I noticed at boot time that I get
an error to the effect "can't find entry point for _saver_init" or some
such and then ld complains and I don't get a screensaver. Any ideas? I'd
like to get it working as I don't always remember to turn off the monitor.
