After I finished the basic install, I started X11 with xdm from the

another, maybe even from a non-admin user account. No apparent
problems at
first.
Then I copied the xdm_flags="" line from rc.conf to rc.conf.local and
uncommented it and tried booting. X11 came up, but I could not enter
passwords. Trackpad did, however, move the insertion point pointer.
Had to
shell in from another box to undo xdm.
Tried startx about this point, and it ignores keyboard input but
registers
the mouse. I can click for a menu, select "Exit", and get back to
the text
terminal.
Sometime later, I noticed I had forgotten about /dev/ttyC0, so I
tried
again, with /dev/ttyC0 off in /etc/ttys. Still no keyboard.
Maybe you imply this, but to make certain: did you restart the
computer after editing /etc/ttys?
Yes, I left a lot of things implied, I'm afraid. But I did reboot
after editing.
And the version of /etc/ttys that I posted has /dev/ttyC0 both on and
off, I notice
now. I actually tried it all three ways. The only thing I didn't try
was commenting
both lines out.
I'm sure this is something simple that I'm tripping over because I'm
not familiar
with things. At least, I'm hoping there's some simple question
someone can
check me on, that it'll turn out I missed.

Read further and found the information on X -configure, and tried
running
it, but it locks up with no messages to the screen after leaving a
configuration file. I can shell in and kill the processes and
usually get the
system back. Using the configuration file doesn't help.
I was able to get some variation to give me keyboard input with
startx, but
only once, can't reproduce it now.
Reading the logs, I'm not able to figure out much. I notice a kbd
module
seems to get unloaded, but so does a mouse module, so I'm not sure
that's
relevant.
