I vote for it being enabled by default. I'd like to see it taken a little further by making it easy to have multiple X sessions on the various vconsoles so that (e.g.) a multi-user household can have multiple people's sessions active at the same time and allow fast desktop switching. That is, the first console is a text console, the remaining have xdm or gdm running. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/
