“Exit” command in console freezes computer, feature or fault?
After changing to a console (Ctrl+Alt+F3), logging in, and issuing the command "exit", my computer hangs (fans speed up, no response from keyboard, black screen) when trying to switch back to GUI (Ctrl+Alt+F1/F2).
Is this a feature of the "exit" command, or a fault?

"Logout" had similar consequences. Issuing the commands in a terminal window in GUI does not cause anything similar.

Commenting every line in ~/.bash_logout seemed to fix the problem.

This is the result of a known bug in the clear_console command. (For more info, see here or here.) Just comment out the clear_console line in ~/.bash_logout and the problem should go away.
