II've the same bug but I check further. Here are the result. I use two laptops : a Dell latitude Cpi a366xt and a FIC DesignNote 3500 (Pentium 120Mhz). I've made tests on the two. The two machines do same things except that the Dell doesn't reboot when selecting a reboot in gdm, or after a 'reboot or shutdown -r' command. GDM menu : - halt in the gdm menu gives a shutdown and a power off - reboot in the gdm menu gives a shutdown and no reboot; the last 2 lines on the screen are "stopping all md devices" "system halted" In console mode or in a xterm, the 'reboot' command power off the machine. A 'halt' command stop the system but doesn't power off. The last 2 lines on the screen are "stopping all md devices" "system halted" When pressing "ctrl-alt-del", the message "stopping all md devices" appears again and then the machine power off. Cordially, Pierre Thonne Brussels *** Bug 18774 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Same problem, this time with a gateway laptop Same problem with a compaq deskpro ep (350 Mhz Pentium II). Previous versions of redhat worked just fine on reboot/halt.. This bug is because someone changed "shutdown -h" to not do a poweroff. Then gdm was updated to reflect the change and the panel was not. Anyway, will get fixed in the next version. gnome-session currently calls /usr/bin/poweroff, so it should theoretically Work Fine. The rebootfix patch makes this change (someone has edited the rebootfix patch since 7.0). |
