check out the visuallogin(4) man page, as well as the
xdm configuration files in /usr/lib/X1/xdm.
If you're not interested in running graphics at all you
should:
1) make sure your prom 'console' environment variable
is set to 'G' or 'g', see nvram(1M),
2) run 'chkconfig windowsystem off' as root,
3) and reboot.
*steps 2 and 3 can be replaced by running /usr/gfx/stopgfx.
If, for some reason, you want graphics on the console again:
run /usr/gfx/startgfx (as root of course).
