I've been using Kubuntu long since the first beta, my only issue is when I go to shutdown, logoff or reboot KDE will start to close then rather then shutting down, rebooting, or returning to the logon window the screen remains black. During this time the system will not respond to ctrl+alt+f1-12, ctrl+alt+backspace or ctrl+alt+del.
I have to force shut via the power button. The work around I found is to launch a terminal and do a sudo reboot or halt. Then the desktop manager successfully shuts down and the system reboots. Though no configuration settings stay when I do this.
Are there any log files anywhere on the system that might help me determine what is causing the system to not shutdown properly?
I forgot to mention it is a IBM T43.
