Not having it happen any more may be because I force gettys to start on ttys1-6 during init instead of allowing them to be created on demand the systemd way, which may be dispensing with the race condition that causes use of tty8 instead of tty7 for the display manager. I run the following script (which I keep in /bin in the partition I have mounted to /usr/local/, and thus in $PATH) one time after system installation to get the gettys started at init time:

The script does something else too, so you might want to modify it before use: It causes tty1 not to clear when init finishes.
It doesn't clear for me, either. Perhaps because of my kernel line in grub. Interesting. I'll have a look at your script as time permits, thanks. I may adapt the script for the rest of modifications I do. I like the idea. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 12.3 x86_64 "Dartmouth" at Telcontar)
