After a long sequence, the answer to the question of how to start X was to set /etc/ttys as I said earlier and start xdm in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/<whatever>.sh.

Actually, if this was the discussion that involved J'org and I, the result was that we agreed it should be started out of /etc/ttys, which is why I committed the change to the default /etc/ttys in FreeBSD.

I switched to this mechanism and have not had a problem since.

Starting out of rc.d is *NO* safer than starting out of /etc/ttys, and has the chance of causing problems. By putting it in /etc/ttys, you can immediately see where conflicts would arise since everything else is started out of /etc/ttys.
