The writing of /var/spool/gdm/whatever should be done from /etc/event.d/tty1, since that's the only place you really know it's appropriate. I changed it so that it only happens on initial boot to runlevel 5 (`runlevel` = "N 5"). There is still the problem where getty is not started on tty1 when the display manager is not gdm. That would require some more smarts between /etc/event.d/tty1 and /etc/event.d/prefdm. But that's no different than the current situation. I'm confident this can be done correctly, though. Patch attached. -- Dan
