Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to
x11 at FreeBSD.org:
Bug 212178: x11/xconsole has no output
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212178



--- Description ---
As root, I chmod'ed a+r and a+w for /dev/console
As normal user, I then ran 'xconsole -file /dev/console'

In theory, my xconsole window should now be grepping the console
messages. But when I switch on/off my USB scanner/printer, no output appears
in the xconsole window.
