problems with tty's (especially tty3)



I am having problems with my tty's.  For some reason, most of my tty's, except
tty1, are slow to recycle after logout.  Tty3 is especially slow, and sometimes
doesn't recycle at all.  It just hangs and I get an error message every 5minutes
that says:

INIT: Id "3" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

I can't deallocvt the tty because it says tty3 is busy.  I have also tried
manually running getty on tty3 and even changing runlevels, both to no avail.
I am running the getty in util-linux version 2.12-6 in Debian unstable.  Does
anyone know how I can fix this problem once it occurs, and more importantly, how
I can keep it from even happening?

Thanks for any help,
PRINCE
