I suppose if anyone has physical access to a machine, they could get access to

Of the suggestions, I like this one the best - no need to generate an xorg.conf

straight away, if I use "exec startx" it
use mp3 as the audio format)
will go out of sync when using vlc. Better to use mplayer in these cases (or
smplayer/kmplayer for a GUI). Experiment with which video output driver suits
your machine. You will still sometimes get screen tearing if/when your video
card can't keep up, but no sync problems.

Best way to see what this community is like is to subscribe to the mailing
lists (and browse/search the archives http://marc.info/ or
http://dir.gmane.org/index.php?prefix=gmane.os.openbsd ) and see what people
are doing and talking about, or to send in small patches as others have
suggested.
Cheers,
Brett.
