Hello Niclas! :-) On my FreeBSD-10.0-AMD64 now I cannot switch back to
console after I launch Xorg with Inter driver. This was not the case
in 9, where I could switch back to console, unless I specified
WITH_NEW_XORG in make.conf. So I guess binary ports provided by pkg
are already built with that flag set..?
