For example, this is from a few minutes ago: > w 3:27PM up 13 mins, 6 users, load averages: 0.21, 0.18, 0.13 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT [...] mystify p3 :0.0 3:17PM 1:00 ssh friley-185-206.res [...] mystify p5 :0.0 3:26PM 2:03 ssh -l patrick crunche mystify p6 :0.0 3:27PM 28:41 ssh -l patrick crunche These are in xterms that I just opened and in which I have done nothing (including type in a password thanks to ssh). This is on a freshly built 4.0-current system running XFree86 3.3.3.1. I saw this before rebuilding this afternoon but didn't pay attention to the conditions under which it happened. It's easily repeatable by simply opening a new xterm and not typing anything in it. If I close the xterm on ttyp6 by logging out and then open a new one, the idle time is at zero. If I close it by clicking on the window manager's close button, the idle time picks up where it left off. It's not a problem or even an annoyance. It's just a little strange since it seems as though idle times are being "recycled" in a way. -Patrick Patrick L.
