I think Darius is on the right track.
There was a problem some time ago about some vendor (I don't remember whom)
tried to add a process to the ovsuf file which started a getty process.
Since this process would never have a parent of ovspmd but rather root, it
was always marked as incorrectly parented. The solution was to take the
GUI process out of ovsuf and start it another way. I thought they
(whomever they were) fixed this.
Anyway, take a look at /usr/OV/conf/ovsuf and see if you find a reference
to getty. That'll be the offender.

Hi,
Did it happen after you installed Transcend ?
