Hello,
I'm trying out 2.6.0-test9-ruby, and I noticed that XFree86 tries to comes
up on the last used vc (vt06) instead of the first unused vc (vt07). I
think that there is an off by one error in the VT_OPENQRY ioctl and that
the patch below is appropriate. I've included the full text of the
VT_OPENQRY ioctl, since I'm not sure if I understand everything fully.
Thanks,
Wayne
