Hello,
Do you expect to run the X Window System? [yes] no
Do you want the X Window System to be started by xdm(1)? [no] no
Isn't this a contradiction? Or is it related to "machdep.allowaperture"? If
"machdep.allowaperture" isn't needed anymore, why is it still in the
install?
there's only one kind of hw out there, right?
oh wait. :)
At the moment, on i386/amd64, only radeon, intel and vesa can avoid the
xf86(4) driver, there are a lot of other X servers and
non-Radeon/non-Intel hw that can be handled by something better than
vesa out there.
The first question sets things up so X *could* be used (if needed). For
security reasons, this can't be changed after the system has fully
booted. The second determines if X should be started at boot, but X can
certainly be started post-boot. Two different things.
