Just in case it's your problem here, here is a quick list of things to check: * ping 127.0.0.1 * ping yourhostname * ifconfig -a | grep UP LOOPBACK RUNNING If any of these fail, or don't show a result, you have a problem. Check your /etc/hosts file (is your hostname correctly setup there if it needs to?), check your /etc/network/interfaces (got a lo entry? is it set to auto and inet loopback ?) Also, another symptom will be that stracing gnome-session-save --kill will block on some network stuff with 127.0.0.1 or something similar. Thanks for the response. The problem seems to be mythfrontend. If that program is running then shutdown fails. If I kill mythfrontend first it all works properly. I've downloaded the sourcecode to mythfrontend to try and see if it does anything unusual, but no joy so far.

Must be something I'm running that alters the behaviour of gnome-session-save. I will look into this further and see if I can find out which program it is.

[Bug 51227] cannot restart, logout,shutdown
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-session When I hit the log out button I get a dialog asking log-out, lock, switch user, hibernate, restart, shut down. Whichever option I choose then pops up a dialog saying your session has been saved and then I get returned back to my desktop. I can only logout/restart/shutdown by hitting CTRL-ALT-DEL or kill -HUP GDM ** Affects: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- cannot restart, logout,shutdown https://launchpad.net/bugs/51227 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
