I am runing 4.0 current SMP.
Some time back, we had the discussion on this list about how to start X.
The CTL-ALT-Fx problem was discussed and no solution was produced. This is still an open issue. If you shutdown an X session and use CTL-ALT-Fx before X completes resetting the screen and presents the login prompt, the keyboard will lock. This happens every time.
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.
I switched to this mechanism and have not had a problem since.
Has the "correct" way to start X changed back to using rc.local or /etc/ttys?
