You appear to have two things you regard as issues:
1. Logging out of tty2 in some way you do not specify puts you back on
tty1 with X. How do you leave tty2?
2. X is misbehaving.
The only way I can think of that you can have X on tty1 is by using
startx. Is startx the way you start X?
The second thing is whether this 8.1 Debian is an upgrade or a new
install. Which is it?
