By default the system starts with six virtual terminals (F1-F6), and X needs it's own virtual terminal to start in, which defaults to terminal 7 (F7). As far as I know there's no way to avoid this, unless you limit the number of virtual terminals started, but you'd still have the problem of it switching to the highest unused VT when gdm (and hence X) is started. And I'm pretty sure there's no way to force X to use an already taken terminal.
And even if you could, I don't see the utility of it. _________________ Join the adopt an unanswered post initiative today
