Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.0.2-11
Severity: wishlist
This patch adds a new switch to Xserver command line options: -novtswitch.
The switch disables automatic switching to and back from virtual terminal
used by Xserver.
The switch is useful when using another VT to configure the server.
Incorrectly set up server launched from /etc/inittab won't render the
system unusable.
