There has been a lot of discussion about this, and I'd just like some
clarification of how the folks implementing thought it was supposed to
turn out.
My understanding was that the DM was to start on tty1, and some lower
subset of the ttys, say 2-6 or 7, was supposed to be reserved for
alternate graphical logins, but that console (getty) ttys would still be
available on the higher ttys. Maybe not as easy to find, but more
consistent with current usage.
I'm seeing what Olivier is seeing (although this is a desktop system and
not a minimal system). In my primary desktop, I can hit CTRL-ALT-Fn for
n = 1 to 12, and I get no response at all. It just stays on the same
desktop.
Bug or feature ?
