Yes, it worked! Thanks a lot for helping me with this problem.
Indeed, the fix is obviously a *right one*. I do not doubt it,
it is very easy to understand; a fine and clean fix.
After changing /etc/ttys as you described all is running fine. But
as a general workaround... can I suggest removing the xconsole(1)
entry in the xdm configuration files? It will be a more general
fix: platforms without X11 support will continue receiving kernel
messages in the text console; machines with X11 support will not
require changes in the configuration files when xdm(1) is enabled.
Again, thanks a lot for helping me.
Best wishes,
Igor.
