I run X the stone age way with startx/xinit. Each time I switch to

and then a similar one when I switch back. This happens when the
original VT is in raw mode, apparently, so the terminating newline is
not cooked and I get the staircase effect, messing up the display (after
I return from X) and wasting screen space.
Can I silence these messages? I tried adding "-logverbose 2" to my
server init file, that didn't help. IIRC I cannot redirect the output
to /dev/null or anywhere else because X looks at stdout/stderr and makes
inferences from where they point.
Maybe I ought to try -logverbose 0 ?
I'm not home now, so I don't have the exact syntax, but I created an
alias "startxlog" which calls startx, redirecting stdout to one file,
and stderr to another. I haven't noticed X doing anything odd because
of those redirects.
