My /etc/ttys looks like this
ttyv6 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 on secure
ttyv7 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 on secure
#ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm off secure
#ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm on secure
The init: getty repeating too
logging in at command line works and startx works. Now want to use x11
xdm to control logins for virtual terminals 9+
Followed handbook instructions 5.6.2 Using XDM doing this
ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm on secure
Then kill -HUP 1 to reread the file.

, in order to try if xdm is working correctly it can be

I had ~/.xsession spelled correctly in the directory. Just typo error in
email. Changed the contents of ~/.xsession as you posted. Still no joy.
/etc/hosts file is correct

I am in the middle of setting up a new machine and want to get rid of
the ^*(*%*@ xconsole on xdm (it doesn't go away on login
either)... how?

a charm, except for one small
annoyance. If I run xdm, everything hangs when I log out. The monitor
just turns black and i get no response whatsoever for neither the mouse
nor the keyboard. The only thing that works is shutting the computer off
(by quickly pushing aqnd releasing the power button, so
pushing aqnd releasing the power button, so the OS shuts down using ACPI).
This happens every time. No matter what window manager I use. But it only
happens when I use xdm. If I start X with startx, it shuts down cleanly and
returns to the tty from which I ran startx.
how you start xdm?

Hello list,
I have written an e-mail on 12. April 2007 in
freebsd-questions@freebsd.org and a day later in [EMAIL PROTECTED]
concerning a login-problem with a X-Terminal to a FreeBSD-6.2-XDM-Server.
The reason for the problem was: the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xstartup
didn't exist
