Basically, (but please see later), X starts on the first free console under both syvinit and systemd. With sysvinit consoles 1 to 6 have gettys running on them, so the first free VT is 7. For systemd only VT1 is activated, so the first free VT is 2. I wonder whether you quite understand the purpose of VT6. > apparently the default already).

You can override this with startx -- vt7 Regards, Brian. _______________________________________________ Pkg-systemd-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-systemd-maintainers
