Bug#314834: startx: confused session when display as server argument is not the 1st arg
Package: xbase-clients
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14
Severity: normal
It is already quite confusing to have "startx -- vt12 :1" launch its
clients on :0. Looking at the script shows that it cannot recognize
it as a display if it is not the 1st argument.
If the behaviour is not changed, it should at least be documented.
