I agree. -ttymode shouldn't just make the tty driver the default
output_driver; it should disable the X driver, so that it never tries
to open X.

Type and version: PS2-80 7.1I
Display type: 8514
What were you trying to do?
Run zwgc on the console.
What's wrong:
zwgc -ttymode attempts to open X. I had my display
set to a machine that was not on the net; this caused
zwgc to take a long time to start as it attempted to
connect to the nonexistant X server.
What should have happened:
-ttymode should prevent zwgc from attempting to use X
