Ok, it was working fine in 0.4.1 and broke *again* in 0.4.2.

I understand the intention to have a seamless interaction with plymouth, but *please* don't force lightdm on vt1, *even* if plymouth is run there. On Debian and derivatives it'll be replace by a getty and no, we don't want to replace that tty, people expect it there. X should start on vt7, that's all.

So either make the “replace plymouth on the same vt” optional, or make “minimum-vt” enforced for *all* startups. But right now it just can't work.

Sorry, the tone might be a bit rude, but it's quite hard to have a working setup for more than few weeks right now. I had the intention to replace the gdm2 setup in Debian Xfce by lightDM, but right now it's just not possible.
