Using the standard 1.2 release of NetBSD on an SE/30 with the
later monochrome Xserver, everything seems to work.

However, when I log in as other than root, and attempt to
run xconsole, it says it can't open console.

What's going on?  I tried making xconsole set uid root
and set gid wheel.  I tried making /dev/console a=rw.

None of those worked.  However, if I su to root and then
launch it, it works fine.

Any ideas how to get xconsole to talk to the console
when it's not running as root?
