init 1 in GNOME

[Michael Schwendt]

Up-to-date Fedora 14 Beta (Oct 1st):

"init 1" (or also "init 3") run from within a GNOME session here
doesn't terminate X.

Is it just my installation or reproducible?

$ rpm -qf /sbin/init
upstart-sysvinit-0.6.5-9.fc14.i686

It's reproducible for me, maybe a bug? o,O

I have the same issue.  I suspected the graphics driver (radeon).  For
me booting with the kernel parameter nohz=off seems to resolve the issue
(and improves the performance of Xorg).

nohz=off didn't change anything for me.

I've filed a bug about "upstart" even if that may be the wrong
component: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/640925
