I will not touch the severity of the bug, but I agree with Chris that the problem is in OO. In the track he reported above in comment #23, it is quite clear that OO told the session manager the user cancelled the shutdown, so I think that the session manager should not re-ask the question. breaking all application that works well. The severity should be high on the OO bug, not on the session manager one.
On the other hand, there is another workaround not commented above: open a terminal an do a "shutdown -h now". Worked on my old Digital Ultrix in 1989, still works ok :-) -- [ooo-build] OOo QuickStarter: unable to shutdown / reboot / logout when quickstarter is active https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
