Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: gdm 00] Environment - two users logged in. There is a dedicated root-user account, with a dedicated password, and the other users have NO sudoer privileges. 01] User#1 request to shut down the machine using gnome panel applet 02] response is a black screen with authorization window requiring password (picture of keys on left side) and warning that another user is logged in. [[ BTW ### Nothing in the message states which of the three passwords are being requested! ]] 03] Each of the three passwords are tried at least once [[ BTW ### None of the passwords are REPORTED to have been accepted ]] 04] After a final shudder and claim that the password could NOT be authenticated, the authentication window disappears, and the GDM greeter screen appears. [[ HUH?! Did it just 'give up', or did it mis-report a proper password authentification as improper? If so, which password? ]] 05] The GDM greeter allows the computer to be shut down using the button on the right side of the lower panel.
