0%
Description
If you start xdm with xdm_enable=YES in /etc/rc.conf keyboard won't work at all
(can't switch to console or anything). If you start xdm from user, it works.
Here's the relevant part of Xorg.0.log:
() Option "CoreKeyboard"
() Keyboard0: always reports core events
() Option "Protocol" "standard"
() Keyboard0: Protocol: standard
() Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
() Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
() Keyboard0: XkbRules: "xorg"
() Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
() Keyboard0: XkbModel: "pc105"
() Option "XkbLayout" "us,ru(winkeys)"
() Keyboard0: XkbLayout: "us,ru(winkeys)"
() Option "XkbOptions" "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll,compose:lwin"
() Keyboard0: XkbOptions: "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll,compose:lwin"
() Option "CustomKeycodes" "off"
(**) Keyboard0: CustomKeycodes disabled
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Keyboard0" (type: KEYBOARD)

It looks like X tries to use /dev/ttyv1 which is occupied by getty:

Same problem with kdm. This happened after leaving the computer up for about
56 days, not doing anything that would obviously mess with kdm or the
keyboard. It was working before.

phma:
I don't think your problem is related.
Mine was solved by using ttyv8 line in /etc/ttys instead of pkgsrc script, by the way.

I started kdm from /etc/ttys instead of from /etc/rc.conf. That fixed it.
Presumably it's setting the keyboard of its own tty now.
