(split off from bug #196816) On Ubuntu Hardy Heron, if an inbound ssh session (from another system) is active, a shutdown initiated from an XFCE session fails to shut down the system and instead returns to the login screen. With a Gnome session the shutdown proceeds normally. An outbound ssh session, from tty1 for example, does not inhibit the XFCE-initiated shutdown sequence. On Xubuntu Intrepid Ibex Alpha 2 this occurs with both XFCE and Gnome (added via ubuntu-desktop). Neither will shut down if an inbound ssh session is active. I can't see any differences in the logs between a Gnome-initiated shutdown and an XFCE-initiated one. The issue is 100% reproducible. ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Shutdown from XFCE returns to login if inbound ssh session active https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
