I took a look at the code and that is exactly what happens. But "beagle --fg" does not seem to return. I use it in a script that waits for beagled to return to stop the repository afterwards. This works fine with beagle-shutdown. However it does not seem to work when logging out /shutting down. The relevant part of the script looks like this: trap on_trap INT TERM # start beagle: echo "Starting beagle and watching it..." >&9 # We hand on all variables but --bg to beagled so it can deal with them. /usr/max/bin/beagled --fg "$REDUCED_ARGS" >&9 echo "Beagle returned!" >&9 The log at &9 prints the following: Starting beagle and watching it... Always: Starting Beagle Daemon (version 0.2.18) Always: Running on Mono 1.2.5 Always: Using sqlite version 3 Always: Command Line: /usr/max/lib/beagle/BeagleDaemon.exe --fg Debug: Established a connection to the X server Debug: Reniced process to 7 ...
