           Summary: Misleading Xorg exit status return
           Product: xorg
           Version: 6.8.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: App/xkbcomp
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: hcking at mcalesterlinux.net


Equipment:  Old 533MHZ HP with i810 graphics

Xorg returns 0 even for failed start.  This breaks the 'xorgsetup' script
and many other config scripts/programs. Problem has only been seen on 6.8.1
(6.7.0 works correctly).

Packages used were from Slackware-current.  After encountering problem, I
grabbed the source code and compiled for myself -- same result!

Also,  manual config does not seem to support the same Depth/Modes as 6.7.0.
Don't know if this is related or another bug.
