Product: kdebase

Summary: 9.1beta2 gdm dialog in race with shutdown/reboot
Version: 3.1-0.rc6.19mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major

I'm not sure where to submit this. It happens in both KDE and GNOME in
9.1beta2. If I select either "shutdown" or "reboot" from the KDE/GNOME Logout
dialog, the graphical login prompt comes back up anyway and stays there. If I
do a CTRL-ALT-BSP, the shutdown or reboot proceeds normally. However, I doubt
that Joe Sixpack is going to know to do something like that.

Correct, now at the bottom of the graphical login screen the system button has the reboot and halt options, and those work anytime the graphical login is invoked(click system button, choose action). It looks like the mortar(scripts) processing the halt and reboot calls are not passing them to the gdm right so that things just continue toward the reboot or halt (German for American English shutdown). Essentially, desktop is shutting down, but the graphical login thing is now being just called, not an entry point into its appropriate action points as if the shutdown from desktop were being fully honored and acted upon.

John.
