Prevent Logoff from Killing tmux Session
I have noticed that a logoff (log out) from my X user session will kill any tmux
session I have initiated, even sessions I had run with sudo tmux
and similar commands. I am sure that this formerly did not happen, but some recent change has effected this behavior.
How do I maintain these tmux
(or screen
) sessions, even after I end my X session?

This "feature" has existed in systemd
previously, but the systemd
developers decided to effect a change in the default, to enable the setting for termination of child processes upon log out of a session.
You can revert this setting in your logind.conf
(/etc/systemd/logind.conf
):
KillUserProcesses=no
You can also run tmux
with a systemd-run
wrapper like the following:
systemd-run --scope --user tmux
For these systems, you may just want to alias the tmux
(or screen
) command:
alias tmux="systemd-run --scope --user tmux"
