I only came aboard this particular thread, so apologies for my lack of previous context... What is said there (or rather, what is implied) is just not true... there is no correlation between the display number and the virtual console that is used by the X server. The fact that virtual console 7 is used by X for the first default display is purely "accidental"... you could "startx -- :5" and then DISPLAY=:5 would be running on Alt-Ctrl-F7. Or you could add switches to pass to the X server so that it will run on any virtual console that you liked.
