Hi Just in case you didn't notice, X11 now starts on tty1 by default.
So if you want a text login shell, make sure you go to tty2! I've not actually updated it for sysvinit now I think about it, so I'll have to update the default inittab, but the principle is the same. We want X there, not a login.
