Your xterms were talking to your X server by some means, probably a Unix socket. The X session ended, so the X server exited too. Meanwhile, the xterms were still trying to talk over the socket, but now there's nothing on the other end. This causes a "broken pipe" error, and your xterms, having no X server to run on, now exit. It's basically a consequence of shutting down X without shutting down the xterms first. It's harmless. -- _____________________________ / \ "The cat's been in the box for over | David Maze | 20 years. Nobody's feeding it.
