I am running Sid and X thru startx.
It appears that on restarting X the tty it uses dwells to tty8. I wonder
why I want that feature, it's annoying.
This happened from time to time also in wheezy and starting GNOME as
usual (by means of GDM). The X sessions "jumped" from tty7 to tty8 or
tty9...
Found a reference to it:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=103765 'Psycho_zs' gives a
solution to it: start console-kit-daemon on vt63, down the page.
This seems to 'fix' it. I think.
Why does consolekit do this?
The user points to this bug which is still opened:
console-kit-daemon holds tty
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29920
Yes, I noted the jumps tty7-9-10 as well with gdm3. So to avoid the
jumps, put:
openvt -c 63 -f -- console-kit-daemon --no-daemon &
in /etc/rc.local before the 'exit 0'.
It "works" I guess because now upon quitting and restarting X I always
have X at tty7, which is what I want instead of pecking and searching
where X hides itself.
But I admit that the reason for the fix is not obvious to me. BTW I now
have 61 tasks in my system of console-kit-daemon, hope it needs them all.
