That is very strange - you're using syscons, you have only gettys
on /dev/ttyvXX, you're using XFree86 2.0... Hmmmmmm! It works
*great* for me! It must be something else lurking in the background.
What else can you tell me about your setup?
xconsole runs ok, floppy errors are displayed, but no
talk-requests.
That's not for xconsole to do anyway - talk requests go directly to the
`users' logged in on vtys and xterms.
under other users:
xconsole says "cant open console" and displays nothing
Needs to be suid root!
