Description of problem: Telling GNOME to power off causes it to log out to GDM, but doesn't have any effect after that. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-shell-3.0.0.2-2.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the status menu. 2. Hold down the 'alt' key. 3. Select 'Power Off...', and click 'Power Off' or 'Restart' in the resulting dialogue. Actual results: GNOME logs out, and ends up back on the login screen. Nothing else happens. Logging back in works fine. Expected results: The computer should shut down.
