To make sure X support is enabled under OpenBSD, the following
line must be in your config file in /sys/arch/i386/conf
:
options XSERVER, UCONSOLE
The server supports the two standard OpenBSD/i386 console drivers: pccons and pcvt. They are detected at runtime and no configuration of the server itself is required.
The pcvt console driver is now the default in OpenBSD. It offers several virtual consoles and international keyboard support.
When not using XKB, the server can read the actual keymap from
the keyboard driver and use to build the X keymap. Be sure to use
``RightAlt ModeShift
'' in XF86Config
to have the right Alt key
behave as AltGr.
Syscons and codrv are not bundled with OpenBSD. They are available by
anonymous FTP from a number of sites. They are not supported by the
XFree86 binary distribution anymore. You can compile support for them
by adding -DSYSCONS_SUPPORT or -DCODRV_SUPPORT to
XFree86ConsoleDefines
in xf86site.def
. See the section
Console drivers for details.
