When I execute 'vidcontrol -T xterm', "vidcontrol: illegal option -- T" is
displayed. Ah, I use FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE, not -CURRENT. Maybe that's why I
don't have -T option. I posted my message here because development of
TEKEN_XTERM is an ongoing process.

I don't understand what you answered to. However, TEKEN_CONS25 is not in my
kernel configuration. And There was a typo.
"I would be glad keymaps in X11 and consoles became the same with TEKEN_XTERM
in the kernel" should be
"I would be glad "if" keymaps in X11 and consoles became the same with
TEKEN_XTERM in the kernel"
Do you think xterm way(instead of syscons way) of key symbol to console
character conversion should become the default in 9.0-RELEASE?
I think it should be since syscons is being replaced by teken, which uses
xterm. I'm not sure if I used terms right.
PS. teken reminds me of tekken, an arcade game.
