Would it not follow the rule of least suprise to explicitly document that a common feature is not available on a specific platform. Instead of the documentation through implications?

Hi,

    I've tried googling but with little success, I am trying to use virtual
terminals (console), but I could get ctrl+alt+f1 to work. From what I see in
the dmesg, it detects those keys such as F1 as a device for brightness and
sound volume.

Note the platforms that console switching is supported on.

How do I solve this? My X-window is not working too (I used the default
radeon driver at xorgconfig) for my radeon mobility 9200, I'm using OpenBSD
3.7

That is a completely useless problem report and is being appropriately
ignored.  It also sounds like you didn't read the /usr/X11R6/README file.

Nick.
