I see what you are referring to now. I installed OpenBSD 6.8 current. When I started xenodm it sent me to a blank page. on tty5. I hadn't gotten to that point yet, when I emailed you.
Because of that and the ports site having issues, I tried installing OpenBSD 6.8 release. After starting xenodm it took me to the login page. So something else is going on.
