Re: Using login with xdm

[Eugene Andrienko <evg.andrienko%gmail.com@localhost>]

Also note, that there are maybe a lot of garbage strings in the system
console (Ctrl+Alt+F1), if xdm was started with `service xdm start' and
sometimes Ctr+Alt+F1-6 didn't switch the user to the desired text
terminal. I found these issues with FreeBSD 15.0.

So, to start xdm I'm using this string in the /etc/ttys (sadly, I didn't
remember where I found this line):

    ttyv7	"/usr/local/bin/xdm -nodaemon"	xterm	on secure

This should help if you find the same problems.
