Bug#290625: xserver-xfree86: sarge upgrade (4.3.0.dfsg.1-8 -> 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10) no keyboard on 1st startup under KDM, competing with getty on VC2

Hi Brice,

I am sorry, all the Debian systems around here at the university that I
have access to have already been upgraded to the up-to-date xorg/etch,
so I don't have an opportunity to retest it. However, if you have a spare
Sarge machine, and install KDM there, just do a sarge->etch upgrade on it
while (mistakenly) not allowing the ServerVTs=... line to be merged into
the resulting kdmrc (as per the history of the bug). If, after that, the
bug doesn't manifest itself (check across 1 reboot as well), then you
probably should report the fact on the bug thread and happily close it.
(The bug is pretty deterministic).

HTH,

Vassilii
