Hi all, |
2 |
|

This issue is related to my desktop. Bear with me while I give some |
4 |
background details. |

A couple of months ago, I followed the MySQL Upgrade Guide to upgrade |
7 |
MySQL. At that time, some configuration files were changed. I don't |
8 |
know specifically if those changes had anything to do with a problem |
9 |
that developed. The problem was that when I logged out of KDE and chose |
10 |
to either restart or shutdown the computer, neither of these occurred. |
11 |
The monitor would shut off, but not the computer. |
12 |
|
13 |
A week or so ago, I did the gcc upgrade using the GCC Upgrade Guide and |
14 |
much to my pleasure, the problem of not being able to reboot or shutdown |
15 |
when I selected those choices from the menu on KDE logout disappeared. |
16 |
|
17 |
On Sunday, I started an 'emerge --update --deep world'. A number of kde |
18 |
3.4.3 packages were pulled in (I orginally emerged kde-meta). The |
19 |
update went fine. At the end, I ran etc-update and 4 configuration |
20 |
files related to kde were updated. The files were: klipperrc, |
21 |
ksslcalist, kdmrc, and libkleopatrarc. |
22 |
|
23 |
Now, after the update, I again cannot reboot or shutdown when I select |
24 |
either of the choices from the menu on KDE logout. |
25 |
|
26 |
I figured that kdmrc, might be a logical file to be causing the problem |
27 |
and I *did* find a "Shutdown" section in this file with the lines |
28 |
related to shutdown and reboot commented out. I removed the '#' and |
29 |
used the suggested defaults - /sbin/halt and /sbin/reboot. Well, this |
30 |
didn't solve the problem, so I tried editing the related lines to |
31 |
/etc/init.d/shutdown.sh and /etc/init.d/reboot.sh. This didn't solve |
32 |
the problem either. |
33 |
|
34 |
So, in a nutshell, I still cannot shutdown or reboot when I select these |
35 |
from the menu on KDE logout. |
36 |
|
37 |
Any ideas here? |
