Shutdown button not working on LXDE environment
Hi all, I am working on porting debian wheezy to a13-olinuxino board. I am using LXDE as desktop environment, openbox as windows manager. Shut Down button doesn't work after I installed cairo-dock. Earlier I had SysVinit as service manager, after which I have installed systemd. From the terminal I can shutdown using either systemctl shutdown or init 0. Does that mean I have two service managers ? can anyone help me ? Regards, Divya Subramanian
Re: Shutdown button not working on LXDE environment
Sounds like you installed systemd and are running that. systemd supports `systemctl poweroff`, `init 0` and `shutdown -h now` as shutdown methods. I suggest you look at the apt history (/var/log/apt/history.log) and try to figure out if any hardware-specific packages were removed. For example on amd64 machines, acpid/acpi-support/acpi-support-base are responsible for turning the button press event into shutdown. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Shutdown button not working on LXDE environment
I checked it but no such packages are removed. Is there any other way to do so ? Where does the shut down button from application menu mapsto ?

Where does the shut down button from application menu mapsto ? That depends on the software in question. At a guess, lxpanel is package containing the shutdown button for LXDE. Looking at codesearch.d.n for lxpanel I found that shutdown in lxpanel uses gdm or hal. hal has been removed from Debian so I doubt you are using that. IIRC gdm requires systemd interfaces. Searching the Internet for systemd shutdown debian, I found some related links, including that this is a known bug. The issue is that the LXDE support for systemd/logind is buggy. Your options are to get an NMU of lxsession with the Maeiga/upstream patch included, get involved in the LXDE team and help them maintain it and fix the bug, switch back to sysvinit or ignore it for now and use systemctl poweroff/init 0/shutdown -h now. http://sources.debian.net/src/lxpanel/latest/debian/lxpanel.README.Debian https://bugs.debian.org/730123 https://bugs.debian.org/731489 BTW: LXDE will be probably soon be removed from Debian to make way for the rewrite called LXQt. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
