My primary suspect is my pam / systemd setup. If I am on X, and I ctrl+alt+f1, I switch to a terminal. ps aux shows that all my programs are still running. However, if I alt+f7 back, the X server immediately dies and I get sent back to my login prompt.
Clearly I'm missing something important. Any clues what it is? I'm on USE=systemd, and my /etc/pam.d/system-auth has a session line with optional pam_systemd. My logind.conf is as follows: === snip [Login] #NAutoVTs=6 #ReserveVT=6 KillUserProcesses=no #KillOnlyUsers= #KillExcludeUsers=root #Controllers= #ResetControllers=cpu #InhibitDelayMaxSec=5 #HandlePowerKey=poweroff #HandleSuspendKey=suspend #HandleHibernateKey=hibernate #HandleLidSwitch=suspend #PowerKeyIgnoreInhibited=no #SuspendKeyIgnoreInhibited=no #HibernateKeyIgnoreInhibited=no #LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes #IdleAction=ignore #IdleActionSec=30min ===/snip -- This email is: [ ] actionable [ ] fyi [ ] social Response needed: [ ] yes [ ] up to you [ ] no Time-sensitive: [ ] immediate [ ] soon [ ] none
