When reading the thread "Lockups after unlocking
screensaver", it
reminds me an unanswered question I had months ago.
I use Trinity 3.13.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. As far as I can recall
(years), my TDE session started on vt7 (Ctrl-Alt-F7).
After a power outage, I restarted my box and ever since TDE starts on
vt8 (Ctrl-Alt-F8).
Everything works well but I would like to understand the reason of this
vt switch.
I searched the web for an answer with no success.
Does someone on this list has an answer?
Nothing harmful, no bug, but curiosity... is on mars now :-)

I'd look for stale Xorg lockfiles in /tmp; if Xorg "thinks" there's a
session already active on VT7 it will start the next one on VT8. This
isn't an issue on boxes where /tmp is mapped to tmpfs, but I know there
are people who like to map /tmp to persistent storage so I thought I'd
mention it.
