I had the same problem in dapper. I describe it again to clarify and be sure i am in the subject. With my xfce session is open, i select reboot or shutdown. Then, I observe a switch to VT, where i can see shutdown messages, and then switch to usplash for the last steps. Note that this never happen if i select reboot or shutdown from GDM.
After an update to Edgy last week, the behavior is not exactly the same : if i select reboot or shutdown, my X is totally freeze during the fist part of shutdown, and then again switch to usplash for the last steps. Again, usplash is correctly start immediatly after reboot or shutdown asked from GDM. -- xfce4 doesnt shut down properly https://launchpad.net/bugs/46571 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
