+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #136518 +++ From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1 Description of problem: Fedora Core 3 (fresh install) running Gnome. Problem: Delays on Log Out Details: On selecting Action>Log Out, the Log Out dialog box appears. After selecting Log Out and clicking OK, nothing happens for two to three minutes. Eventually, the log out occurs. If you wait for the log out (that is, abstain from killing X with ctrl-alt-bs, or opening a console with ctrl-alt-F1 and shutting down the machine), then log in, then select Action>Log Out, nothing happens (no Log Out dialog box) for two minutes. Then the box appears and log out can proceed immediately. This symptom occurs on both machines. The kernel is still running fine. An ssh connection seems to work just fine. ps ax shows the last task running to be /usr/bin/esd -terminate -nobeeps -as 2 -spawnfd 28 Fedora Core 3 - fresh install Two machines: 1. Sony VGN-A270P (laptop) 2 GB RAM ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] 2. Dell Dimension V433C 384 GB RAM ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X (rev 5c) I note that the commonality between the two machines is the ATI video card. I wonder if there's a problem with the driver. It looks like the delay between clicking OK on the Log Out dialog box to the time the log out or shutdown occurs is exactly 120 seconds - at least that´s as close as I can measure it on my wristwatch. This for the case where the delay occurs between clicking OK and the logout occurs. I´ll time the other delay (where it occurs between selecting Action>Log Out and the Log Out dialog box appears). I think it might be a race condition. Select Actions>Log Out BEFORE THE SCREEN FINISHES DIMMING - On the ensuing dialog box, click Log Out or Shut down In this case there will be a 120 second delay before the action takes place. If you wait for the dimming to complete it will occur immediately. The above behavior doesn´t happen all the time - but it seems to be reproducable if you do the above. At times, there´s a delay between slelecting Actions>Log Out and the apearance of the dialgo box. When this occurs, log out is immediate after being selected. It appears (not sure though) that selecting Restart will cause a delay no matter what. Roy
Shouldn't we close this bug as FC3 is EOL?
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product.
