No available TTYs when logged in to GNOME session (LFS v9 SysV)

I've been trying to figure out why I have no functioning TTYs as soon as I log into the GUI. GDM starts in tty7 and gnome-session in tty2, which is as I understand it how GNOME works now, which is fine I suppose, although I would prefer it if it only used one TTY. My main issue though is that I only get a black screen with a blinking dot in the upper left corner for all the other TTYs.

I can issue something like this:
Code:/sbin/agetty -8 38400 tty3 linuxAnd then I do get a functioning TTY3, but I would like all of them to be available without doing anything and would prefer it not to be an ugly hack as in adding the aggety to something like ~/.bashrc (if that would even work because when I issue the command the terminal is busy until I log out of the TTY).

My /etc/inittab is as per the book and looks like this:
Code:# Begin /etc/inittab

id:5:initdefault:

si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc S

l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 0
l1:S1:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 1
l2:2:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 2
l3:3:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 3
l4:4:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 4
l5:5:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 5
l6:6:wait:/etc/rc.d/init.d/rc 6

ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now

su:S016:once:/sbin/sulogin

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty --noclear tty1 9600
2:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty tty2 9600
3:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty tty3 9600
4:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty tty4 9600
5:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty tty5 9600
6:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty tty6 9600

# End /etc/inittabShouldn't that mean I should have tty1 through tty6 available, except for those already taken by GDM and GNOME?
