What were you trying to do?
I had just logged on, when
What's wrong:
suddenly I saw the message "Session initialization completed."
What should have happened:
However, my session initialization was not completed, so I thought this
was odd. It should have waited until my session initialization was completed
before saying "Session initialization completed."
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
I noticed that in /usr/athena/lib/init/xsession, it says
"source ~/.startup.X &". I can't imagine why the "&", unless for some
efficiency reason that makes everything run faster, in which case ignore this
bug report. It just seemed odd.
