Post-installation instructions for X.Org on OpenBSD/sgi
-------------------------------------------------------
OpenBSD 4.3 and later use the X.Org X server on sgi.
Currently, the X server is only supported on SGI O2 workstations with a gbe(4)
frame buffer. The wsfb driver provides an unaccelerated frame buffer for use
with the X server.
The default /etc/X11/xorg.conf which is installed, provides a ready-to-run
configuration. Due to the current lack of dynamic object lazy binding on
OpenBSD/sgi, the `shadow' and `fb' modules need to be force loaded. This can be
achieved by ensuring that the following is included in the xorg.conf file:
Section "Module"
Load "shadow"
Load "fb"
EndSection
To start xdm, the X display manager, activate the xdm_flags option in
/etc/rc.conf. You will need to disable the console getty in /etc/ttys.
Alternatively, you can log in at the console and run `startx'.
