Hello, I want to start X without changing to the VT the X server is started on (e.g. vt8), but I can't get it to work. X -help gives this: martin@martin-laptop:~$ Xorg -help use: X [:<display>] [option] -a # mouse acceleration (pixels) -ac disable access control restrictions [...] -novtswitch don't immediately switch to new VT -sharevts share VTs with another X server And -novtswitch obviously looks good for this, but it only appears to work when I kill the started X server. Without the flag, it automatically switches back to the primary X server (vt7) when it is killed, whereas with that option, I have to switch back to vt7 manually. In case it matters, here's X -version: martin@martin-laptop:~$ X -version X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date: 12 May 2006 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.15.7 i686 Current Operating System: Linux martin-laptop 2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 i686 Build Date: 07 July 2006 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.
