*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 60626 *** Hello Scott,
how could telinit 5 not exist if I used to do it all the time with warty, hoary, breezy, dapper, and until recently, edgy? I know that telinit 6 is the "reboot" runlevel if I'm not mistaken, BUT I am not talking about a real physical reboot here. I am talking about a "quick simulated" reboot, that means going level1 and coming back up at level 5. The process takes about 30 seconds (instead of a big 2 minutes for a full physical reboot). This is needed in some occasions when gnome's settings daemon is messed up, when compiz is messed up, or anything else that does not involve the kernel and only needs part of the system restarted. I don't know if what I'm saying is clear at all :| -- telinit does not work as espected https://launchpad.net/bugs/61204 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
