That was more of a long shot. I wasn't thinking of memory. I once did
an update of a Slackware based system (long time ago) between kernel
versions (1.2->2.0 if I recall) and only created four of the VT
devices. Not knowing much about the system, everything was fine until I
ran X for a while. I could run three or four xterm's, but the next one
would not start, failing silently. It took a while to connect the two
events. But I also learned that some X apps. use resources other than
memory.
But this isn't what you are seeing.
