Good news is that it is using vt7 (and higher), the bad news is that it just displays a black screen with the X shaped X cursor. If I try to change to a console VT then this appears to trigger a new X session to start and this is displayed rather than the console VT. This new X session is also black with the X shaped X cursor. This keeps happening until eventually I can switch to a console VT. ps: root 849 1.3 1.6 16412 12996 ?
