Eelco Dolstra b4a1893cdd systemd-vconsole-setup: Don't put the X server in non-raw mode
‘systemd-vconsole-setup’ by default operates on /dev/tty0, the
currently active tty.  Since it puts /dev/tty0 in Unicode or ASCII
mode, if the X server is currently active when it runs, keys such as
Alt-F4 won't reach the X server anymore.  So use /dev/tty1 instead.

Tty (virtual console) devices, in addition to the consoles on
which mingetty and syslogd run, that must be initialised.
Only useful if you have some program that you want to run on
some fixed console. For example, the NixOS installation CD
opens the manual in a web browser on console 7, so it sets
<option>boot.extraTTYs</option> to <literal>["tty7"]</literal>.
