That sounds like your X11 server picks up a virtual console on which a
"getty" gets started later. Ones all "getty" processes are running it
uses the correct one. You can avoid that by telling the X11 server which
console to use. My "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers" looks like this:
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -bpp 32 -once vt05
"vt05" = uses 5th console, that's "/dev/ttyE4" for WSCONS.
