I don't think this is quite how it works in the plymouth/gdm new world order. Especially since newer gdm doesn't support FirstVT anymore. plymouth drops a file /var/spool/gdm/force-display-on-active-vt, which gdm checks for when starting its slave. Instead, I think this can all be handled from upstart with a preference FORCEACTIVEVT in /etc/sysconfig/desktop (names/files open for suggestion). Attached is an untested patch which: 1. Writes /var/spool/gdm/force-display-on-active-vt from prefdm if $FORCEACTIVEVT = yes 2. Starts getty on tty1 in rc5 if $FORCEACTIVEVT=no So, you can get the old behavior back with echo 'FORCEACTIVEVT=no' >> /etc/sysconfig/desktop This requires that writing /var/spool/gdm/force-display-on-active-vt is removed from plymouth. -- Dan
