FBSD 4.7R --------- the following appears to be different behavior than i have experienced in the past, and somewhat unusual. please reply off list as well if you reply. $ startx & is the command above supposed to operate like ^Z (suspend)? i would not think so. i would think that such commands "detach" from the terminal and run in the background regardless of further commands in the foreground; however, following the command above with "fg" brings the process to the foreground, as if one had started a process in the foreground and suspended it with ^Z. is this a bug? thank you.
