What can be the cause of this problem? Thanks cApTaiN_FaNtAsTiK Yes, I have had that problem. Unfortunately, I have no idea what causes it or what to do about it. It's irritating, but non-critical, and since it does not seem to happen under other DM's such as KDE or other WMs such as Openbox, I assume it's a GNOME issue. This is supported by the workaround I use; when the logoff does not appear in a timely manner, open gnome system monitor (which should open promptly), then attempt to close it. When I attempt to close gnome system monitor (without even doing anything to the processes it's showing, though you are free to manage those if necessary), the logoff dialog appears immediately. It almost seems like there's a stuck process that opening/closing gnome system monitor causes to 'unstick'-- but that process is not visible as 'stuck' in gnome system monitor (this is how I had wound up choosing gnome system monitor in the first place; in order to see if some zombie process was slowing down the logout process). So that's pretty much my sum of knowledge about this issue. I'm hoping that it will be fixed in GNOME 2.10 (whenever that becomes available); I've noticed this in both 2.6 and 2.8, but don't really remember it in 2.4.

Re: [gentoo-user] Gnome log out
Run gnome-session-properties and you can choose to prompt on logout. For some reason this gets turned off in Gnome 2.4.

Nope. Mine does it too though. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/19/03 6:28 AM >>> I've had this problem since I upgraded to Gnome 2.4 from 2.2 but just haven't bothered looking into it yet.

Because we couldnt find a secure way to implement the reboot/shutdown (they would just shut up and ignore any other choice than "logout" unless you're root) it was decided to simply disable the logout prompt per default.

[gentoo-user] Gnome log out
I've had this problem since I upgraded to Gnome 2.4 from 2.2 but just haven't bothered looking into it yet. When I select Actions>Log Out within Gnome, instead of giving me a dialog box to choose between Rebooting, Logging Out, and Shutting Down, it just throws me out of X and back to the command prompt where I have to do a halt command.
