Hi,

It looks like :-). Upstart is in F13 updated from 0.3.x to 0.6.x. The way 
tty's are handled has changed in this version. It seems that X is fixed - again 
- to vt1. If I'm wrong please let me hear. As a 'workaround' - fix? - the 
changes that were made in F11/F12 [1] have to be reversed:

In /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc change:

* ServerVTs = -1 -> ServerVTs=1 and
* ConsoleTTYs=tty1,tty2,tty3,tty4,tty5,tty6 ->
ConsoleTTYs=tty2,tty3,tty4,tty5,tty6

Hope this helps.
