Hello everyone, I had a rather interesting problem recently. I dont have any display manager and I open desktop environment from tty when needed. Previously when I logged out from Xfce or closed down X server, it would put me back on my tty session. Now when I do the same, it also logs me out from tty and I must login again. Is this the expected behaviour after some xorg or kernel update? Or did I mess up something? I tried with both `startx` and `startxfce4`. And to be sure that this is not an driver related problem, I also tried with `nvidia-xrun`, same results.
Hi Ali, To me it sounds rather like your session exists now with a killall instead of <something else that only kills the startx process> before. Did you change something related to that recently? You could try to check that hypothesis (I don’t know exactly how, maybe running some additional forked process in your initrc and see if it gets killed when you exit?). -- Ismael
