No, unfortunately not. In wscons.conf:
#screen 0 - vt100
screen 1 - vt100
screen 2 - vt100
screen 3 - vt100
screen 4 - -
exactly as on my other boxes running 1.6/1.6.2.
Just one other thing to mention: The ONLY machine where I have this problem is
the compiling machine.
I made a 2.0_RC1 ISO image from my self-compiled binaries and installed a
laptop with this (clean install, no update) and all screens work.
