Bug 235507 – [gnome-overlay] =gnome-base/gnome-session-2.23.90: cannot shutdown or restart system

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Kobboi 2008-08-23 07:51:55 UTC]

Installed 2.23.x (mostly x=90) packages from the Gnome overlay. When trying to shutdown the following errors appear but nothing happens

gnome-session[5967]: DEBUG(+): GsmManager: Shutdown called
gnome-session[5967]: WARNING: Could not connect to ConsoleKit: Could not get owner of name 'org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit': no such name
gnome-session[5967]: DEBUG(+): GsmConsolekit: built without PolicyKit-gnome support - cannot restart system

gnome-session[5967]: DEBUG(+): GsmManager: requesting reboot
gnome-session[5967]: DEBUG(+): GsmConsolekit: built without PolicyKit-gnome support - cannot restart system

Reproducible: Always

please make sure you have the latest packages available and then report this upstream.

Is it worth it? I never receive any decent feedback upstream on things I occasionally log there.

[Comment 3 Kobboi 2008-08-23 22:04:52 UTC]

Bug logged upstream
