** Description changed: ssh -X user@server hangs when using exit to terminate Steps to reproduce: user@client:~$ ssh -X user@server user@server:~$ gedit At this point gedit from server will run locally. Closing the program and returning to the terminal you run: user@server:~$ exit logout At this point the terminal hangs on the echo logout, but does not return to the client prompt. The action has been consistent when connecting to a server running opensolaris or ubuntu 8.04. The client is using Ubuntu 10.04 and the server is using 8.04, and using default password authentication. As you will see in the video attached I can confirm the issue when using a clean Ubuntu 10.04 as a client and Ubuntu 8.04 as the server, using default password authentication. - However there are a few things you can do to work around this issue. + Workaround + ---------- -When logging out with "exit" and it hangs, press Ctrl-C -If you would like to simply use gedit on another computer use the following command: - $ dbus-launch gedit - + $ dbus-launch gedit Date: Thu Jun 10 17:34:26 2010
