I guess this is related, since CTRL+C is the "copy" action in X, but if you use it in the terminal, it sends an exit signal to the foreground process.
What happens is, I believe, that ^C is sent also to the terminal spawning X, thus effectively killing it. This could also explain why Xorg.?.log doesn't show any errors: X is killed on user request. Please, this bug renders the whole system completely unusable, other than highly insecure. ** Visibility changed to: Public -- [jaunty] all entries (also passwords!) logged to terminal underlying the X server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
