So you are using twm. If you have not changed anything to the default
configuration, only exiting the upper left xterm should take you out
of X.
Exiting the other ones should just clode the window.
Have you installed the legacy fonts? They are known to be needed for
proper
operation of twm (see the thread starting at
http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/blfs-support/2019-February/080725.html)
And please do not top-post. My 2nd answer is coming before your 1st

Now this is a new thing that has just started happenning
which is very
annoying, what is the cause of this, and how is it fixable.
Hi,
Are you using twm or another WM?
If using twm, have you changed /etc/X11/app-defaults/xinitrc, or
do you have
~/.xinitrc?
What does /var/log/xorg.0.log say?
Try also starting with "startx > ~/startx.log 2>&1"
and examine the startx.log
That's all I can think of now.
Pierre
Sorry about top post
I have installed xorg Legacy fonts, but that didn;t fix the problem,
Try launching X exit the xterm, you are returnd to the login prompt
but user is logged out. This is something that has been introduced on
latest Systemd build, (not sure about SysV).
Xorg log shows nothing nore dose Journalctl
Try creating an .xinitrc in your home directory:
xterm -g 80x40+0+0 &
xclock -g 100x100-0+0 &
twm
Then run startx. There may be no difference, but it's worth a try.

Ok tried adding that to .xinitrc in fact X wont even start with that.
There has to be something that has changed that logs the user out.
If there is are several desktops installed and .xinitrc is used to
launch them, when you log out of 1 desktop you are logged out, you have
to log back in at tty then run startx. This becomes a nuisance!!!
What has changed?
