Col,

Could you have a look at https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2600 ?  
It appears that starting X on tty1 may be causing problems on 
single-core machines, as something is starting mingetty on tty1 repeatedly.

Also, I'm not sure what the desired functionality ended up as here, but 
in current cauldron even though there are mingetty's started on 
tty1-tty6, CTRL-ALT-Fn doesn't budge off the X desktop for any value of n.
