Hi,
I am experiencing problems with shutdown and reboot from Xubuntu. When I try to shutdown the machine or reboot it, it "hangs". If I disable the splash screen (to see what happens), I get a log-in on the command line of TTY1 but it is not responsive. If I activate TTY7 I can see a message stating:
I can wait for as long as I like but nothing happens after that.All processes ended within 2 seconds
If I open a root terminal and issue the commandthe systems turns off without hesitation. If I issueCode:halt -f -pthe systems reboots as expected.Code:reboot -f now
So I decided to change the commands in the GUI (Applications > Settings > Login Window) and clicked "Edit Commands". There I changed the default command for reboot inand did a similar change for shutdown. It did not workCode:reboot -f now
Then I changed the commands using the configuration files:
- /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom
- /etc/gdm-cdd.conf
- /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
Of course I made one change at a time and tested it. But even after I had changed all files I could not get the system to shutdown or reboot through GDM
So my question is:
Where or how do I change the commands for shutdown and reboot in order for GDM to do its job?
PS. The originating problem is caused by NFS/Portmap but I can't find a solution for it. I must have searched and tried for over a week
Any help greatly appreciated!
Greetz,
