Public bug reported:
Not sure which packaqe this is related to but I'm seeing it on two
laptops and on both it started happening after the upgrade to KDE 4.6.2.
Machine 1 : Acer Aspire One running Kubuntu Natty, fully updated as of today.
Machine 2 : Samsung R780 running Kubuntu Maverick, with KDE 4.6.2 installed
from the kubuntu-backports PPA
On both machines, if I select 'Shut Down The Computer' from the main
menu, or the logout button on the taskbar, the system drops to a login
prompt on tty1 and stops there. Switching back tty7 shows that X has
exited. If I press the power button the shutdown then continues. The
first message I see on tty1 is 'acpid exiting' and then the plymouth
screen appears and the shutdown completes.
Other observations:
In Kubuntu's power management I have the action for the Power Button to be
'Shutdown'. Pushing the power button while logged in to KDE makes the keyboard
and desktop become unresponsive. My only course of action then is to hold the
power button down to do a forced shutdown of the machine.
As I say, shutdown was working fine on both machines when I had KDE
4.6.1. It's only since the upgrade to 4.6.2 that I've noticed this.
