Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021. I'm setting the status of this bug to 'Incomplete' as it's not seen any activity for some time. Does this bug report have any relevance when using a currently maintained release of Ubuntu? If so, please let us know which one(s) otherwise this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time. ** Tags removed: security startx tty ** Tags added: xenial ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1659140 Title: x crashes when I log in and back out of a tty (console, cntrl-alt-F2 thing, whatever) Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Observed behavior: When I get an alternate tty, or whatever it's called, with cntrl-alt- FN, where N is any digit, 2-6, inclusive; log in as the same user on the console; do stuff; and then log out with "exit": I'm suddenly back in tty1 and X has crashed. There is no x on any console. I can start it again with startx. Expected behavior: As it does in 14.04, I should just get a login prompt and stay in the same console. X running in tty1 should be unaffected, like x in tty7 would be unaffected in Trusty. This is 64 bit Xenial with a minimalist Openbox environment, built from the mini.iso. I start X with "startx".
