Or manually (by e-mail), you can choose what's best way for you: http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting.en.html > I don't know in which package this bug is.

GNOME 2 (and its associated libraries) will be dropped sooner or later and keeping it up-to-date from wheezy onwards it does not have to be an easy task. >> Anyway, that kernel is old.

shutdown not working in Gnome / KDE
Hi, I can only shut down my pc from a root terminal with 'poweroff' (or shutdown) but not from graphical environments. >From Gnome2, sometimes it shuts down, sometimes I get back to gdm. From gdm, the shutdown action sometimes works, sometimes it just quits gdm. In KDE 4.7.4, shutdown in the application launcher menu does nothing, or dims the screen. How do I fix this? I do not see any error messages. Debian unstable, 3.1.0-1-686-pae thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
