[pkg-fso-maint] nodm 0.6-1 , cannot open /dev/tty7

[Visti Andresen]

I'm having some problems with nodm as well

debian-gta02:~# nodm 
nodm: cannot open /dev/tty7: No such file or directory
nodm: cannot allocate a virtual terminal

This is with nodm 0.6-1
I have tried to purge it and reinstall it...

An indeed

Creating it with mknod dos not seem to fix the problem...

P.S.
xdm brings up a greater if forced to run on vt1 by
editing /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers
The default setting is vt7
