Description Brian C. Lane 2009-05-02 00:38:47 UTC
Description of problem:
After upgrading today F11 won't reboot without doing a CTRL-ALT-BKSP to kill X and then a bunch of CTRL-ALT-DELs to get the init scripts to finish.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select shutdown from the menu
2. I see it shut down all the GNOME elements, and then hang with only the desktop image visible. Mouse clicks do nothing.
3. CTRL-ALT-BKSP
4. Drop to console but won't finish shutdown
5. Multiple CTRL-ALT-DELs to convince the scripts to finish and shutdown
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
Shutdown with no intervention

Additional info:
Core2 Duo system, 4G RAM with Nvidia chipset motherboard and using the nouveu x11 driver.

What makes you think this is an issue with nouveau?

Comment 2 Brian C. Lane 2009-05-02 03:38:00 UTC
Well, I'm not sure exactly which part it is an issue with. But that seemed like a good starting point since I have to CTRL-ALT-BKSP to get it to drop back to the console.

Comment 3 Ben Skeggs 2009-05-04 04:41:37 UTC
The video driver's involvement in switching back to a VT is exactly the same no matter whether you press logout, or ctrl+alt+bksp :)

In any case, just to be sure, can you switch to the nv or vesa drivers and try to reproduce?

Comment 4 Brian C. Lane 2009-05-04 16:13:41 UTC
With the vesa driver a reboot acts the same. A shutdown was successful without intervention. The nv driver doesn't work with my card.

I also noticed the following:

1. After switching to console (CTRL-ALT-F2) the login prompt doesn't respond. That would indicate to me that the shutdown process is at least past that point.
2. The first line that appears when doing a CTRL-ALT-DEL is 'disabling monthly Smolt Update'

Comment 5 Christoph Breitkopf 2009-05-06 10:14:39 UTC
Same thing happens on my notebook:

- hangs during shutdown
- After switching to console (CTRL-ALT-F2) the login prompt doesn't respond.
- need 1 times CTRL-ALT-DEL to continue
- The first line that appears when doing a CTRL-ALT-DEL is 'disabling monthly
Smolt Update'
- after that, it always REBOOTS, even if I selected shutdown

System config:

HP 6715b, ATI Radeon 690, F11 beta 64-bit (updates up to 2009-05-04)

Comment 8 Brian C. Lane 2009-05-16 04:32:33 UTC
I was using the Nouveu driver with no xorg.conf file.

But now it is working fine using the current version of f11 where /etc/redhat-release reports Fedora release 11 (Leonidas) and the rawhide repos have been replaced with the f11 repos.

Comment 9 Matěj Cepl 2009-05-16 07:37:09 UTC
Anybody else can reproduce it with the latest upgrades to Rawhide?

Comment 10 Christoph Breitkopf 2009-05-18 16:58:56 UTC
Same for me - no longer reproducible with latest updates.

Comment 11 Matěj Cepl 2009-05-18 17:12:39 UTC
Thanks for letting us know
