Blank Console

[Alex Solla <poopdeville@phreaker.net>]

Hi everybody,

I'm having some trouble with my console.  When I boot up, I get a grey 
screen with some OpenFirmware stuff on it instead of the usual kernel 
loading stuff.  Eventually, I reach kdm.  That works fine.  But if I 
try to quit kdm to start a console session, I end up either with either 
a black or, lets say, very colorful, screen.  What should I look into 
to fix this?

Thanks much,
Alex
