Pre Mga3 alpha1 DVD i586 with default Gnome installation (3rd set) After testing Gnome for the afternoon I tried to reboot. It started in proper full Gnome, used alt and chose Poweroff, selected reboot. Instead of rebooting it took me to a Gnomeclassic GDM which said my user was still logged in. I chose to reboot from the gnomeclassic GDM but it appeared to do nothing. I logged back in to my apparently already logged in user and it started a gnomeclassic desktop. Trying to log out of the gnomeclassic desktop just took me back to the gnomeclassic gdm. In the end I rebooted from a root tty2. Dave Hodgins has confirmed this and suggested it had been discussed on the -dev ML. I can find comment there about users still appearing logged I didn't see eny mention of it preventing shutdown/reboot. I couldn't find any existing bug for this.
Source RPM: GDM ? => GDM ? systemd ?
I added systemd as it was thought to be systemd/gdm related when discussed on -dev ML

Created attachment 2748 [details] syslog.gz Attached syslog which shows alot of debug information, hopefully it will be useful.
I'm not 100% sure about the cause here, but one issue that I fixed last night was one of the gdm session not dying off properly, thus always having two sessions logged in. I've fixed this in latest systemd+pulseaudio which should resolve that issue, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are some issues still remaining from this. If this happens again with the next round of isos, can you run: loginctl loginctl session-status N loginctl show-session N (where N is the session number shown in the first command) You can do this from e.g. tty2 before issuing the reboot. NB On my system I'm prompted to enter a password to allow reboot when more than one user is logged in, but this is perhaps because I'm in the wheel group and it might not ask a pure user account.

Thanks Colin, will do.
This seems resolved, thanks Colin. I'll close it.
