[xubuntu-users] Unable to cleanly shutdown, auth_admin <-- (action, result) ?

[dave selby]

Hi All,

After a few months of faltering I have made the switch from kubuntu to
xubuntu, but I have one really annoying problem.

In xfce when I select restart or shutdown, the shutdown starts then I
get a popup, Quote :


Unable to perform shutdown

org.freedesktop.hal.power_management.reboot_multiple_sessions
auth_admin <-- (action, result)


I click OK and it returns me to the GDM loggin screen, where I can
click shutdown AOK.

This was originally installed as a kubuntu box, then I added
xubuntu-desktop, the above problem arose, I switched from KDM to GDM
but the problem persists.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Dave
