Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm
I installed Xubuntu Fiesty on my computer via the live cd and then I upgraded to Gutsy using the upgrade manager. I noticed that the shutdown splash screen was starting late, after network manager and a bunch of other stuff had already gone down. (There would be no splash screen and then a splash screen for a second or two and then power off). After some investigating I found that gdm in init.d wasn't running usplash_down and according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SplashDown and other forum ramblings its supposed to. My guess is that the reason the splash screen appeared late is something further down the line was running it (maybe sendsigs). In any case, I added a call to usplash_down just before gdm shuts down the display manager and now everything seems to work fine. I.E. The shutdown splash screen appears right away and there is no ucky text. I don't know if this is an artifact from Fiesty that didn't get changed when I used the upgrade manager to move to the gibbon or if its something specific to xubuntu. PS. This is my first bug report. I apologize if I left anything out. ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gdm doesn't call usplash_down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159262 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
