I needed something similar, it seems (?) that X starts up on the first _free_ vt, so what I did was, I edited /etc/initab and commented out the mingetty on vt5 (that's where i wanted X) and left in 6 thru 7 .. I now have x running successfully on 5, and normal text tty logins on 1 thru 4 and 6 thru 7 on bootup

Does anyone know how to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config AND /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (I use both XFree 3.3.6 and XFree 4.x.x) so that I can specify what VT X starts up on? By default, it starts up on number 7 (Mandrake 8.0) but I want it to start up on number 2. What I mean by VT is "Virtual Terminal" -- press CTRL+ALT+F2 for VT2 :) Thanks! pesarif _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
