There is no problem and no difference between X11R4 and X11R3. Why I had to kill X by "Ctrl-Alt-Backspace" is " AIXwindow's xinit invokes ~/.xinitrc with "&". ". So, even if I invoke "exec XXX" at the end of ~/.xinitrc and exit from XXX, I can't kill X. I don't want to modify "/usr/lpp/X11/bin/xinit" , I use X11's xinit :-) Motonori "Heita" Hirano Software Research Associates, Inc., Japan E-mail: m-hirano@sra.co.jp
