Package: kbd
Version: 1.15-1

When I enter in a console, fgconsole works always fine.
If I launch after the X-server, fgconsole works again.
But if I enter with automatic login in X-server as simple user
(I use KDE), fgconsole does work no more:
======================================================
samiel at debian:~$ fgconsole
Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console
======================================================
for all /dev/tty are root's ownership.
So it works fine only for root.

Using Debian Testing with precompiled kernel or the last release,
compiled by myslef
