I've got my MacBSD system running quite well. I decided to start
using 'xdm' so that I could leave X11 running
(and have a screensaver when I'm not logged in).
After enabling xdm in the /etc/rc.conf file and restarting, the X
server starts up and then I get a login screen. After I login, I get
an xterm and xsm (the "X session manager") starts up.
As I understand it, when I select 'shutdown' in xsm, it is s'pose to
save which apps I'm running, then log me out. Instead of just logging
me out, it quits X too. The X server is no longer running, xdm is no
longer running, and I'm left looking at one big terminal.
I've read the xsm man pages thoroughly and can't find any mention of
this behavior.
How can I make xsm log me out without quitting my X server?
Thanks,
Roger
