Apparently in my case there seems to be some issue with ConsoleKit that I have not yet found out. KDE's session manager ksmserver ultimately executes some shutdown code depending on which window manager is used. I'm currently using the "auto" expression, thus what happens during shutdown is that "Stop" or "Reboot" is send via DBus to ConsoleKit. If I do this by hand: > dbus-send --system --print-reply \ > --dest="org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit" \ > /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit \/Manager \ > org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Restart > (method return sender=:1.2 -> dest=:1.22 reply_serial=2) Nothing happens aside from "1329125469.842 type=SYSTEM_RESTART" appearing in /var/log/ConsoleKit/history. The same when running the command as root or as normal user, with and without the "--system" parameter. I've not yet found out why it's actually not doing anything. Anybody a clue here? As an aside, when running KDM, I found out that loading the "Login" tab in "systemsettings" application screws up the KDM configuration in the nix store: e.g. it sets the reboot command to /sbin/reboot (which, obviously, does not exist).
