Subject: dynamic TTY allocation was: Re: Virtual consoles in Arch

All,
    I'm having an interesting issue. On one of my arch installs that was 
upgraded to systemd, dynamic vc allocation doesn't work, whereas on a new 
install it's working fine. Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or 
managed to fix it?

One can also use screen for multiple terminals if the console limitation
becomes an issue.

Thanks,
