Acer Aspire Laptop 3005 LCi
All options for leaving kde4 in Intrepid work except LOGOUT. When
RESTART or SHUTDOWN options are chosen, kdm is stopped, the exit usplash
comes up and the machine responds appropriately. Right before the
usplash comes up, "checking battery state" is seen and a message
regarding kdm stopping is seen. Using terminal, the "checking battery
state" is the last thing seen before kdm loads on a normal start so it
is not the perceived problem.
LOGOUT causes the machine to "freeze" at the terminal and only "checking
battery state" is seen. ctrl-alt-F1 causes the screen to flicker and a
console login is possible.
Once logged in 'sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart shows a message that kdm is
not running, it then starts and graphical login is possible.
Frequently, I just issue 'sudo init 1' as when I log out, it is usually
to reset the X server if I attach a projector. This also works, except
the exit usplash is activated and is "on top of" the options of resume,
dpkg, enter root, fix x server. I discovered this by chance and it is
perhaps another "bug." If I hit "enter" after the exit usplash stalls,
the screen flickers and I can see the blue screen whith red highlighting
"resume" that is available in "recovery mode."
This situation occurred after an upgrade from Hardy (LOGOUT working) to
Intrepid (LOGOUT not working).
I had a spare disk and so installed the down-loadable version of the
latest i386 live CD, installed it cleanly and the issue still happens.
It seems very obvious then that this is indeed a bug with my particular
hardware and Intrepid.
Same results if gdm or xdm is installed and used as the display manager.
