I'm still experiencing this bug on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I'm using LightDM and run Gnome Classic.
The 'Log out' and 'Shutdown' functionality does not work from the gnome menu. In my logs following appears (only when i select the option 'Shutdown'): "gnome-session[2533]: WARNING: Unable to logout: Logout has been locked down" What have i tried: - I've inserted the LiveCD, when i try Ubuntu, then the shutdown / logout menu works fine. - When I'm in LightDM the menu works fine (so i don't think it's a duplcate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/1064388) - I've installed GDM, to check if it was related to LightDM, bug still occured My workaround for shutting down / restarting. Restart X (ctrl + alt + backspace), then select shutdown from the menu in LightDM. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/891083 Title: ubuntu wont log out/shut down Status in The Session Menu: Confirmed Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: logout: $ /usr/lib/indicator-session/gtk-logout-helper --logout ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): DEBUG: Dialog type: logout ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): DEBUG: Showing dialog to ask for user confirmation ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): DEBUG: Dialog return response: 'okay' ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): DEBUG: Asking Session manager to 'Logout' ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): WARNING **: SessionManager action failed: Logout has been locked down ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): DEBUG: Falling back to using ConsoleKit for action ** (gtk-logout-helper:31585): WARNING **: Unable to fallback to ConsoleKit for logout as it's a session issue.
