Subject:   Problem preventing X server from starting

After a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.2 on a Pentium 233Mhz system with an ATI
Mach64 card, I was able to sucessfully start the X server from both the root
account and my own user account.  However, when I booted the machine today,
and I tried 'startx', I recieved the following error message:

Server Error:
xf86OpenConsole: KDENABIO failed (Operation not permitted)

What can I do to remedy this problem?
