@Krug: PS. do you have a founded opinion on my workaround/fix in comment #91 ? My systems seems a bit slower to the desktop while booting, but I haven't had the problem manifest itself. I might start explicitely logging the virtual terminals for any X sessions somehow so I can be sure that I'm actually on vt7 now).
To me the approach is a bit 'iffy' because I'd really think that X should work without problems on a vt2 (e.g. when people have disabled vt2-vt6 for many plausible reasons). Now, if this is really just a race condition somewhere, my approach could be a good starting point (just synchronize stuff). But perhaps, the root cause is more a false assumption about virtual terminal allocation numbers. vt7 has been grafted in collective linux memory over the last decade(s?)... -- Plymouth text-mode splash causes X to crash on first run due to shared tty7 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532047 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
