[...] The difference between a smooth boot without a flicker and a switch to another tty on ctrl+alt+Fn is that in the latter case, you do a specific action to create the flicker -- it's still bad, but at least it results from user action.
So when you boot on vt1 and X starts up on vt1 it takes over settings and there is no flicker, right? So shouldn't it be possible for X to start on vt7 and take the settings from vt1? There shouldn't be any flicker when switching vt's that have the same settings, right?
you won't get flicker either if both plymouth when starting switch to
vt7 before displaying it splash, then X starting in vt7 won't cause any
flickr. We had it configured this way (and Ubuntu too IIRC) in Mandriva.
I'd say it is more a decision on keeping the current setup or switching
to X being on vt1 (which would be, in a way, easier, so we know it won't
switch from vt7 to vt8 for no really good reason if X get restarted).
