Oh, this would really rock if it would work for xdm; if I could say "only start xdm once getty has grabbed all the virtual consoles listed for this runlevel in inittab." I've got a lot of people griping at me lately because the default /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers file says server 0 is on vt7. Folks who have customized /etc/inittab and added virtual consoles are upset with that default, caring not about the console lockup problems that so many other people having experienced due to xdm beating getty to the punch on vt2. -- G.
