ttys not working from xdm

[John Holland]

I have a new install of 10.1 and I am unable to access ttys from xdm. When I press Alt-F3 or Ctrl-Alt-F3 instead it causes either the mouse, keyboard or entire X session to lock up. Here is the section of my /etc/ttys - any advice on troubleshooting this would be appreciated.

console none                            unknown off secure
