Let's see. I have no such problems with kernel 2.6.26-2-686, but if I boot with kernel is 2.6.30-1-686 (linux-image-2.6.30-1-686 deb-package) I see the reported problem. I did login as root on console 1: # tty /dev/tty1 # ps PID TTY TIME CMD 6478 tty1 00:00:00 login 6768 tty1 00:00:00 bash 8119 tty1 00:00:00 ps # ls -al /dev/vc* crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 0 Jul 6 17:10 /dev/vcs crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 2 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcs2 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 3 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcs3 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 4 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcs4 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 5 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcs5 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 6 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcs6 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 128 Jul 6 17:10 /dev/vcsa crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 130 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcsa2 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 131 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcsa3 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 132 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcsa4 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 133 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcsa5 crw-rw---- 1 root root 7, 134 Jul 6 17:11 /dev/vcsa6 /dev/vcs1 and /dev/vcsa1 vanished.
