To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Seizure while exiting X Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk After typing "exit" in my main xterm, I experienced a full keyboard and screen siezure. Most of the applications closed, but beforelight did not close down, and xcdplayer was only partially shut down (main graphics still there, no text). Cntrl-Alt-Backspace did nothing as did Cntrl-Alt-F*. Any idea how to prevent this, or more importantly, what to do when this occurs? I found nothing in the mailing lists, but I thought I may have heard of a similar problem (with solution) somewhere before. System: AMD 133 on Ocean Hippo, 24meg RAM, Diamond Stealth PCI OS: 2.1.7, XFree86 running XF86_S3, TWM window manager Thanks, Dave
