Description Andrew Keens 2017-02-19 09:59:42 CET

Description of problem:
menu-Logout-Reboot and menu-Logout-Shutdown fail to reboot and shutdown pc. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
icewm 1.3.8 Release 5.mga6

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. minimal x
2. login to icewm
3. Follow the procedure of clicking between: menu-Logout-Reboot or menu-Logout-Shutdown
4. nothing happens

Additional comments:
PC reboots and shuts down normally with just issuing reboot or poweroff in terminal as regular user;
Installing full-featured icewm on top of icewm-light does not change anything.
uncommenting entries for "Command to reboot the system" and "Command to shutdown the system" in /usr/share/X11/icewm/preferences doesn't seem to have any effect.
Seems not to record any error in journalctl:

[root@localhost user4]# journalctl | tail -n 5

Hi! I can reproduce the problem in an mga v6 x86-64 vbox VM. However, my attempts at debugging it using strace or gdb were futile. icewm seems relatively undermaintained upstream and the mageia package is heavily patched which makes it harder to maintain. So this bug will be stalled for now.

Hey! Thanks for the quickest answer! Not a big deal for sure! Wonder how many people would login to icewm as a primary session anyway... But it  also turns out it might be a known bug upstream with some patches offered. Mainly i'm talking about this link: https://sourceforge.net/p/icewm/bugs/911/
Though i guess you saying that mageia package is being heavily patched to begin with could very well apply to this being not so valid in this case. But i thought i'd let you know, sorry for not coming up with this earlier.
Thanks again!

Is this still valid for icewm >= 1.3.12-10.mga6?

Tried today on Mageia 6 Sta 2, 32 bit, classic iso, fresh minimal install with x. sorry to say i cant login to icewm now, it freezes after i enter my credentials to xdm.

Comment 5 Andrew Keens 2017-06-20 03:44:12 CEST

works great on Mageia 6 rc i586. Thanks a lot!

WFM. I guess i'm just finally  marking this as solved. Thanks!
