Add a warning :
- /dev/ttyS? : Permission denied, more information in /usr/share/doc/<pkgname>-pkgversion>/README

Seems OK.

Check if you _really_ have the console.
# cat /var/run/console/console.lock  (for FC3t3).

I had some troubles with pam_console in fc3t2. Seems to work as expected
now (fc3t3).

The documentation :
$ man pam_console
       When a user logs in at the console  and  __no  other  user  is  currently
       logged  in  at  the console__, pam_console.so will change permissions and
       ownership  of  files  as  described  in  the  file   /etc/security/con-
       sole.perms.
