Bug#467203: gdm: Runs shutdown on tty7 but then switches to tty0

2008-04-19 Thread Sam Morris
I'm not so sure this is intentional. I noticed that if I boot into Linux
2.6.22, the vt switch on shutdown does not occur! It only happens with
2.6.24 and 2.6.25.

 The effect is that the user sees its shutting down message, but then
 no further messages until power is turned off. I actually thought that
 my system was crashing until I happened to switch to tty7 once and
 observed the output from various init scripts, etc, being printed there!

I think this is intentional. This way, you only see the “shutting
down” (which is all you need to know) message, but you can see what’s
happening by switching to tty7.

It seems that gdm runs shutdown(8) on tty7, but then switches to tty0.
