I had to do this a while ago on my Ubuntu 9.04 laptop. After I disabled the splash screen I could see that something was crashing when I shut the computer down. When I reported the bug with a photograph of the screen on shutdown, I was told to get a specific kernel version. This solved the issue. Perhaps you should do so with your own distribution bug tracker. -- Roshan George <ros...@arjie.com> _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
