I have a solution for Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) Gnome quit hanging with or without "gnome-power-manager". The "gnome-power-manager_2.20.0-0ubuntu6_amd64.deb" packaged which is installed as default is broken. To fix just install the "gnome-power-manager" from Ubuntu 7.04 (feisty) and two required dependencies. Ubuntu is good as it makes a release every six months I can always roll back to old version of packages. I have use similar workarounds in Ubuntu by rolling back selected packages. wget http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gnome-power-manager/\ gnome-power-manager_2.18.2-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb wget http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libw/libwnck/\ libwnck18_2.18.0-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb wget http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libw/libwnck/\ libwnck-common_2.18.0-0ubuntu1_all.deb dpkg -i gnome-power-manager_2.18.2-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb \ libwnck18_2.18.0-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb libwnck-common_2.18.0-0ubuntu1_all.deb This is the last show stopper which prevented me from re-labelling my Ubuntu 7.10 partition as "stable" rather than "testing". -- [Gutsy] GDM logout hangs if Power Manager is disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/134343 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
