O! Thanks. Now I've realized that ls /usr/*conf return 2 since there no any filenames containing "conf".

@ALZ, note that it returns 2 because it cannot find the file called /usr/*conf . And bash is passing it that filename because it can't find files that match that pattern. Better shells like zsh would have returned a "no match" error and not run ls at all.

So If I do on my computer ls for an existing file:
And for a file that does not exists:
Or as a background process ls for a a file that does not exists:
That mean command has finished with exit status different than 0 (success).
Try to not put (&) at the end, to see what happen.
If that command take a lot when running, you could check it with:
