Well, Florian, after today's upgrade I am now where you are with Sid. The X server is on vt7, I logout of the GNOME desktop, and X restarts on vt8. I switch to a text console, issue "deallocvt 7", and it fails. I kill console-kit-daemon, then "deallocvt 7" is successful. Another logout from the GNOME desktop and the X server starts up on vt7. (console-kit-daemon restarts as soon as I switch back to the X console). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
