Hello.
I recently switched a Gentoo system from OpenRC to systemd. I'd like to
keep tty1 (VT1) for login, and move the display manager (SDDM) to tty7.
SDDM is configured for that, but the installed service file
(/usr/lib/systemd/system/sddm.service) has this:
[Unit]
Conflicts=getty@tty1.service
If I edit that file directly and change it to:
Conflicts=getty@tty7.service
it works. systemd is prevented from stopping getty on tty1. I can login
normally on VT1.
However, this change gets lost on SDDM updates. So I'd like to override
that. So I did:
systemctl edit sddm.service
with this in it:
[Unit]
Conflicts=
Conflicts=getty@tty7.service
This successfully creates
/etc/systemd/system/sddm.service.d/override.conf with the above contents.
AFAIK, this should override "Conflicts" and prevent getty@tty1.service
from stopping. But it doesn't. When SDDM starts, tty1 is stopped. The
only way to keep that from happening is to edit the installed
sddm.service file directly.
Does someone know why the override doesn't work?
