When issuing "exit" command (given as username), slim returns back to an empty X session. Need to close X manually afterwords. This is not what I would expect - seems logical that "exit" should leave no X running and back to the console. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge slim. 2. Run "slim -d" manually as root, or set "XSESSION=slim" and start xdm. 3. At the slim prompt, enter "exit" as username. Actual Results: Slim exits, but X restarts. Expected Results: Both slim and X are closed, user back at the tty. This has been happening for a long time, my recent upgrade to baselayout-2.0* and Openrc did not influence the behavior. Nor did adding/removing any of the listed LDFLAGS. I've come up pwith a patch though (see next comment).

Created attachment 184331 [details, diff] Makes slim exit as root, which seems to prevent X from coming back up. Not sure if this is a safe solution. Please comment!
This might also be important. I'm running: mesa-6.5.2-r1 with xcb and nptl, driver: radeon xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6 nptl, sdl, dri xorg.conf settings do not seem to have any influence. Or I haven't tried the right ones - please tell me then.
This might be realted to bug #261359
(In reply to comment #3) > This might be realted to bug #261359 > Nope - no such behavior on my machine.
(In reply to comment #3) > This might be realted to bug #261359 stupid typos ;) Reassigning to maintainer, CCing desktop-misc herd.

I've just realised I had modified /etc/init.d/xdm some time ago, but totally forgot it. The modified script detects if slim is running and if so, kills it brutally.
guess it is a dupe then, thx for the reply *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 261359 ***

Will try to clear that out ASAP. Right now, I'm not too convinced wether or not this patch was the reason I got slim to log out correctly. Sorry for the mess in that matter :/
Could you confirm whether the issue still exists in slim-1.3.2-r5 ? If not, i would like to close this bug.
Ok, this has been around long enough methinks; please reopen or file a new bug if this pops up again in the newer slims.
