One feature that is currently missing from the gdm2 login service compared to 
"dtlogin" is being able to drop down to a console login, do some work (for 
example on the Xserver configuration), and then have X restart when I log out.  
In the Linux world, this isn't really necessary since you can always hit 
CTRL-ALT-F1 to jump to a virtual console, although in this case you might have 
to manually shut down gdm and restart it.

I see from the XFree86 README.Solaris that there was some undocumented virtual 
console support in Solaris/x86 but it was removed in Solaris 8?
