I have a problem.......

If I use the Shutdown/Reboot GUI in either KDE or Gnome, the screen goes 
black, and the computer just hangs, and does not shut down. Turn it on again, 
and the HDD has to be checked before it boots up.

However, 

Open up a terminal, type poweroff or reboot, and things happen as they should.

I havent got a problem with this method, but my PC doesnt have a Windows 
partition, and is shared by other members of my family, and every time one of 
them has used it, It checks the file system, as they have been bought up on 
Windows, and keep forgetting the terminal method......

Any Ideas how I can fix this problem so it works as it should?
