Hi! OK, I'm setting up OS X now... several issues:

1) Space bar, Enter, and Return (and probably other keys) all fail to work
in Console Video full-screen mode. Sometimes they will work; sometimes
they will not. Usually, they will not. They WILL work fine in windowed
mode. I note in the startup messages this line:

Could not open '/var/local/mol/x11.kbd'

Could this have something to do with it? What is this file? What is
supposed to be there?

2) DGA does not seem to work. It lists a bajillion modes. I specify
several modes (it seems to want to start up in 640x480x32, which doesn't
work; my card likes 24-bit, not 32-bit, but then it (STILL WINDOWED)
switches to 800x600 and I STILL can't figure out how to switch into
full-screen mode (or try to). I've turned DGA on, Console Video off. I
wait for X to boot, then I hit ctrl-cmd-space. Nothing happens. Help!

3) How do I change the name of the partition I booted off of? ;)
