Hi, I have this problems ever since the switch to dm for X startup. The shutdown of the system takes serveral minutes, because the gdm stays in a restart loop for a while. The problem seems to be that the xfs service gets killed before the dm service, that's why the restart of gdm after the last logout doesn't succeed and repeats until the dm service stops.
My solution was to move the kill link of dm from K90dm to K09dm, that's one before the xfs shutdown. It wouldn't hurt anyone to change this in the dm init script. My configuration: X 4.2.0-23mdk initscripts-6.90-1mdk gdm-2.4.0.7-1mdk and the NVIDIA drivers :-( -- G�tz Waschk <> master of computer science <> University of Rostock http://wwwtec.informatik.uni-rostock.de/~waschk/waschk.asc for PGP key --> Logout Fascism! <--
