</I>
No it doesn't. It starts it on the next available vt. If you login on
tty2 and have switched to all ttys from 3-6 (and thus triggered the
starting of a getty), then 7 will be the next available one and it will
start there. If you do not switch to 3-6, then it will start on vt3.
You can reserve the gettys by symlinking <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">getty at .service</A> to
<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">getty at tty</A>[2-6].service in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.want/
folder if you really want static gettys started at boot. I'd prefer not
to bother running them unless I need them which is the default setup.
As mentioned already prefdm.service has a specific conflict with
<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">getty at tty1.service.</A> This is why that static config is not loaded when
booting to graphical.target.
Now I'm not sure on the logic inside the Xserver that is used to search
for a free getty. it maybe starts from the current one and counts up. If
so, this logic should (IMO) be changed to start searching from 1 that
way it would relatively consistently start on vt1 even when restarted
from tty2.
