Description of Problem: metacity running in vnc on :1 is exiting, when I quit KDE in :0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): metacity-2.3.987.90-1
Metacity is probably connected to the KDE session manager; try "unset SESSION_MANAGER" before running the vnc. If Metacity is in the KDE session, then exiting is correct.
SESSION_MANAGER is unset...
To see what's going on, run metacity with these env variables: METACITY_VERBOSE=1 METACITY_USE_LOGFILE=1 metacity It will print the name of the log file on startup (/tmp/metacity-something) Cause metacity to exit as soon as possible (log file grows quickly if you do other unrelated stuff), and put the log file somewhere I can find it.
Assuming notabug, no activity in a long time here.
