Attaching my .xsession-errors. I am not sure what is supposed to happen, but trying to log out gives this line: Saving session: gnome-terminal --window-with-profile-internal-id=Default --show-menubar --role=gnome-terminal-13856--1032536501-1195160776 --active --geometry 80x24+360+348 --title [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~ --working-directory /home/joris --zoom 1 ** Attachment added: .xsession-errors http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10403644/.xsession-errors -- cannot restart, logout,shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/51227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 51227] Re: cannot restart, logout,shutdown
I am having the same problem. When Mythfrontend is running, I cannot logout/shutdown/restart. Pressing the logout button only has as result that Mythfrontend shows the screen: Do you really want to quit MythTV? I would think that this is blocking the logout process. I added a line in the .bash_logout file: killall mythfrontend.real But without effect. Please let me know what other information is needed so I can post that. -- cannot restart, logout,shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/51227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

As described in the previous comments, your report lacks the information we need to investigate the problem further. We'll close this report for now - please reopen it if you can give us the missing information. ** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Status: Needs Info = Rejected -- cannot restart, logout,shutdown https://launchpad.net/bugs/51227 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Just in case it's your problem here, here is a quick list of things to check: * ping 127.0.0.1 * ping yourhostname * ifconfig -a | grep UP LOOPBACK RUNNING If any of these fail, or don't show a result, you have a problem. Check your /etc/hosts file (is your hostname correctly setup there if it needs to?), check your /etc/network/interfaces (got a lo entry? is it set to auto and inet loopback ?) Also, another symptom will be that stracing gnome-session-save --kill will block on some network stuff with 127.0.0.1 or something similar. Thanks for the response. The problem seems to be mythfrontend. If that program is running then shutdown fails. If I kill mythfrontend first it all works properly. I've downloaded the sourcecode to mythfrontend to try and see if it does anything unusual, but no joy so far.

Must be something I'm running that alters the behaviour of gnome-session-save. I will look into this further and see if I can find out which program it is.

Thanks for your bug report. Which version of Ubuntu and gnome-session do you use? Can you check the .xsession-errors file for anything interesting? ** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- cannot restart, logout,shutdown https://launchpad.net/bugs/51227 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
