Since I started with Slackware it has always been 6 VTs in runlevel 3, only one in runlevel 4 (console 6). That is the expected behaviour. The X server always runs on 7 and above and no one has suggested differently. Only consoles with a '4' in their definition line will start in runlevel 4. Your posted file (the default) only has '4' in c6, and hence you can access console 6 normally -- but none of the other consoles are available. X is still on 7 whether in runlevel 3 or 4. If you achieved the behaviour in your last post on a previous Slackware version, it was either configured strangely (ie not the default) or you somehow corrupted your installation (or it was buggy but I very much doubt that). What you are seeing matches the expected behaviour *exactly*. To get all consoles available in runlevel 4 just add 4 to the list of options for c1-c5.
Code:
#These are the standard console login getties in multiuser mode: |

As for the ctrl+alt+backspace... The default behaviour for X has been changed (stupidly IMHO but don't get me started) so that Ctrl+Alt+Bkspce no longer kills X. We restore this action to it's correct behaviour using HAL. Look in Code:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-keymap.fdi Code:
<merge key="input.xkb.options" type="string">terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp</merge> |

Where as, if I reset it to have it stop at the command line (login and then run startx) they would all immediately become available in its current configuration. Am I understanding that correctly? (I'm still relatively new, so I wanna make sure) |
That is correct

Ah okay, thanks for clearing that up. :D
