Booting to a Graphic Console
OpenBSD boots into a text console by default. To boot into an X-based graphic console, use the xdm(1) command in /etc/rc.conf.local. The default xdm setting is NO, so by changing it to empty quotes you enable it.
xdm_flags=""
If you need a more complicated xdm setup, put any command-line arguments inside the quotes.
