I experience this bug in 11.10 + updates for AMD64. There are other sightings on the web: <https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-uk/2011-December/032588.html> <https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=46554>
I don't know if this is a unity-greeter bug or a bug in acpid's /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh It looks to me as if /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh tries hard to find the X user to figure out what to do but that when unity-greeter is running there is no user. Mind you, /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh ends with "if all else fails, shutdown -h now". Before unity-greeter, this wasn't a problem. All-in-all, I'd guess that this is a unity-greeter bug. Why do I care? Because sometimes my computer is headless and it is awkward to shut it down cleanly without the power button functioning as it should. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/903306 Title: no reaction on shortly pressing power button To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/903306/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
