Well,
Is it possible for users who do not use "graphical boot" (there are such
users...), use "traditional" tty7 instead?
IOW, if X is already running, leave it on tty1, else invoke it on tty7. If
tty1 is already busy (by X), do not invoke mingetty on it.
Users who do not want a graphical boot set rc 3 as their default
runlevel, and everything is the same as it always was with getty on
tty1-6. If you then run startx, it will start on tty7. In rc 5, X is
started on tty1 and getty is not. That's all there is to it.
