Package: plymouth Version: 0.8.8-8 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
under XFCE on sid with the Joy theme, shutdown initiated by the user using an Action Button on the panel results in an ugly screen displaying a console and no throbber. Shutdown initiated as root with "shutdown -h now" within an xfce4-terminal works perfectly; this might suggest a permissions problem, but the workaround below suggests something else. One workaround is described here: http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=25425 This is to change /etc/init.d/plymouth so that: /sbin/plymouthd --mode=shutdown --attach-to-session becomes: /sbin/plymouthd --mode=shutdown --tty=tty1 Once this change is made, the Joy shutdown screen is displayed even for user- initiated shutdown triggered with an XFCE Action Button. I suspect that this is the same as #709147 (I could not find "the same problem" either). Kind regards, Ben. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.9-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages plymouth depends on: ii initramfs-tools 0.112 ii libc6 2.17-5 ii multiarch-support 2.17-5 plymouth recommends no packages.
