Plenty of apps will keep running, atleast from what I see, the console is up and usually waiting for firefox to close (which is waiting for the confirmation dialog).
- throwaway8941 7y agoIt should register itself as an inhibitor then. Systemd won't let you shut down the system as long as there are inhibitors active (you can still force it). As desktop Linux users we should consider it to be a bug in Firefox (among others). See $ systemd-inhibit --list https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/inhibit/ https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/inhibit/ Cue "applications-shouldn't-depend-on-systemd-we-need-350-competing-init-systems" folk.
- zaarn 7y agoIt'll probably take some time for desktop apps to register as inhibitor. KeepassXC has done this IIRC so now if systemd tries to shutdown with an unsaved database, you can't. Various other desktop apps do too these days, so it's largely a question of time.
- boring_twenties 7y agoWhat do you mean, exactly? Does the X server stay running after you're already looking at the console? Or does Firefox stay running after the X server is already gone?
- zaarn 7y agoFirefox keeps running after X is gone and waits for me to confirm to close all windows.
