Description certhas 2000-10-18 10:50:00 UTC
When trying the 4.1.1 Release I've installed & configured X-Windows. Started X with an user account and it's fine. Then I reboot & attempt to use startx again.
 This has been repeated with Trident and ATI video cards.

 X-Windows gets as far as setting the FontPath after which it then reports:
 Fatal server error:
 xf86OpenConsole: KDENABIO failed (Operation not permitted)

How-To-Repeat: Do an install and try to run X-Windows/KDE a second time.

Hi.
I got the same error (KDENABIO).
I was able to get the Xserver working again by adding  ...
	kern_securelevel_enable="NO" 
in my /etc/rc.conf file.

(the KDENABIO error seems to come from within /sys/dev/syscons/syscons.c
-- ie. if (securelevel > 0) .... etc. etc).

Hope this helps.
pak.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

User should not enable high securelevel without realizing implications. 
Lowering securelevel should fix this problem.
