Description

Gnome shell? Previous behavior of acpid was wrong - it shouldn't respond to ACPI power button event if there is desktop power manager running. In Gnome shell the event should be catched and responded by (AFAIK) gnome-settings-daemon. This works OK on real HW. I have no idea why this doesn't work in VirtualBox, maybe gnome-setting-daemon bug? You can easily check by removing acpid: # yum remove acpid For example in KDE this worked OK (also in VirtualBox). Thus I think this bug should be reassigned to gnome-settings-daemon. The same signal-ignoring behaviour happens at the login screen. Presumably the gnome shell isn't running at that point. Results with various combinations are: 1. With no acpid (yum remove acpid): shutdown signal ignored from both a logged-in session and from the login screen. 2. With the latest acpid (yum install acpid and making sure the daemon is started): shutdown signal ignored from both a logged-in session and from the login screen. 3. With an older acpid (yum downgrade acpid): shutdown signal honoured from both a logged-in session and from the login screen. where 'shutdown signal' means clicking the close box on the host window and selecting the "Send shutdown signal..." option. (In reply to comment #2) > The same signal-ignoring behaviour happens at the login screen. Presumably > the gnome shell isn't running at that point. > Probably the same problem, SSHed into the box with gdm login scren active: # pgrep -u gdm -fl gnome-settings-daemon 947 /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon I am not sure why it needs it, but the gnome-settings-daemon should handle the ACPI event. This also doesn't seem to work on real HW. Reassigning to gnome-settings-deamon. gnome-settings-daemon doesn't handle ACPI events. logind does on modern Fedora distros. This bug was reported against Fedora 17. logind was not involved in handling power button events in F17. It does that since F18. This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
