The workaround I found was to force the initialization vt{2..6}, in a systemd world this is achieved running: $ cd /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/ $ for i in {2..6}; do sudo ln -s /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service getty@tty${i}.service;done $ ls /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/ -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 19 16:40 getty@tty1.service -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 27 17:53 getty@tty2.service -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 27 17:53 getty@tty3.service -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 27 17:53 getty@tty4.service -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 27 17:53 getty@tty5.service -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 27 17:53 getty@tty6.service -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service This made my problem go away, considering that VTs have a really small footprint maybe is a good way to make this a default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509369 Title: gdm runs in vt7 and gnome-shell in vt2 after resuming Status in gdm package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I installed ubuntu-gnome 15.04, then upgraded to Wily. I started getting problems when pressing "Alt+<arrow>" it switches to another virtual terminal like if I was pressing Ctrl+Alt+F<n>, after some troubleshooting these are the steps to reproduce: - Logged in a gnome session - Suspend laptop - Resume - Unlock screen - Press Alt+Arrow_Right, there you'll notice that gdm is running un VT7 and your user's gnome-shell is running in another VT, in my case VT2 No LSB modules are available.
