I have just installed the Xfree2.1 binary distribution on
my march 5 Netbsd current pc. It states in the README.NetBSD if
you get the following error to check your kernal config file
for XSERVER and UCONSOLE. I have done this as well as looked at
the /dev directory entry for ttyv0 which is major #5 ,minor #31.
I also put in rc ldconfig /usr/X386/lib .
I have previously had Xfree86-2.0 on this machine until
about 2hr ago.
Does anybody have any ideas ?
Thanks in advance, The error messages follow .

Check your kernel's console driver configuration and /dev entries

The connection was probably broken by a server shutdown or KillClient.
