I have the same thing here - running the command from within a gnome terminal. If i go to a text terminal (with ctrl-alt-F6) and run the command "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" then it works perfectly. Probably it can't kill itself.
How can i 'detach' this command from gnome so it can finish properly? -- sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart - doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
