On pretty much every computer I interact with that uses Gnome (Arch, et al.) there is always one problem or another trying to log out, switch users, or resume from suspend. The symptom is usually a blank screen (with or without the backlight), or a blank screen with just the mouse.
Currently (and for the past 2 months or so), all our Debian Squeeze boxes suffer from not being able to shutdown/restart/logout from the gnome menu. Our only option is to do a 'switch user' and then shutdown/restart from gdm. Probably something with polkit/gnome-keyring-daemon, but I cannot find any errors in the logs which makes this hard to debug. Our problems are probably unrelated, but I feel your pain :) Vincent -- Advocatenkantoor Suy, Van Baeveghem & Van Houtte Brusselsestraat 108 9200 Dendermonde T +32.52.52.06.05 F +32.52.52.06.46 W http://www.synergylaw.be
