That means the part that starts X is correct.
This is an excerpt of /etc/ttys on FreeBSD 9.0 BETA 2
ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" xterm on secure
# Virtual terminals
ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" xterm on secure
Don't use xterm, it won't be able to run before X has started.
"Pc" is the standard login. The new entry in /etc/gettytab creates a
new "Al" for autologin:
A|Al|Autologin console:\
:ht:np:sp#115200:al=user
The "A", "Al", and "Autologin console" are all names for that entry.
When the system starts, it will start the ttys listed in /etc/ttys:
ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure
ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Al" cons25 on secure
I leave ttyv0 alone for log messages and such, and put the autologin on
ttyv1.
An autologin system probably won't need the rest of the ttyv entries and
they can be commented out.
