openat and graphical applications

[Christoph Pleger <christoph.pleger@cs.uni-dortmund.de>]

Hello,

I am just playing around with openat a little (to open a new virtual 
terminal and execute a command in it) and found the following problem:

Though the command 'openvt -s -w -- dbus-run-session 
startplasmacompositor' starts KDE Plasma with Wayland, not the new 
terminal is used for the KDE session, but tty1, where I am currently 
logged in on the textual console and typed in the command.

On the other hand, 'openvt -s -w -- /bin/bash" opens, as desired, a new 
terminal and starts the shell there. But when I enter the command 
'dbus-run-session startplasmacompositor' in that shell, a switch back to 
tty1 takes place and the KDE session again starts there.

Does anybody know the reason why not the correct TTY is used for KDE?

Viele Grüße
  Christoph
