Here's some additional information. The problem affects me too (after upgrade to 13.10), however I am not using cairo dock, nor is cairo dock even installed on my system.
For me the problem is caused by dockbarx. Since dockbarx is similar to cairo dock, the problem is presumably the same at the core. I am able to reliably reproduce the problem: 1. Install dockbarx, via the WebUpd8 PPA: https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8 2. Log in using "GNOME (Flashback)" (i.e., Gnome 2 w/ compiz) - the problem will NOT occur in "Ubuntu (Default)" (i.e., Unity w/ compiz) 3. Start dockbarx (type in the command 'dockx'). Now: - When dockbarx is started, the Log out/Restart/Shutdown buttons in the normal panel (i.e., the dropdown menu beside the clock, where the system settings etc are) lose their functionality. They simply do not respond. - When dockbarx is killed again, these buttons regain their behavior. - Starting and killing dockbarx a few times, I observe the following: The buttons work if and only if dockbarx is not running.

Just upgraded to Saucy Salamander in Ubuntu. When cairo dock is set to automatically run at boot up the options to shutdown/restart do not work from the top menu panel next to the clock. When run manually after boot the shutdown/restart works fine. The shutdown/restart options do work fine from cairo dock/terminal but just mess up the shutdown/restart from the top menu panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-core/+bug/1242112/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~cairo-dock-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~cairo-dock-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
