Description Alex 2005-03-26 16:56:22 UTC 
My .xinitrc ends:

fvwm2
kbd_mode -a

But when fvwm2 is exited, xinit does not exit.

"ps" shows the kbd_mode process (along with some? others) to be stopped.

If I remove the kdb_mode then xinit exits as expected when fvwm2 is exited.

This worked fine in XFree86 (and many X servers before it).

not a bug, this is expected behaviour from .xinitrc.  whichever process you want
to control the X session must be started last and must be started with 'exec'.
