If you are desparate for a workaround, the following should work, just
append it to rc.local (before exit 0...)

    gdmtty="/dev/$(ps --no-heading -o tty -p $(pgrep X))"
    while true
    do
        sleep .1
        stty -F "$gdmtty" -isig
    done

As I've documented before, I could be running 'stably' with X on a tty
shared with getty for more than an hour, seeing all the other signs
(scroll lock light toggling slowly etc.)

X starts on wrong tty because gdm starts before nvidia driver is ready
