Restoring patch 52 to pre-2.20-7-3 version works. With the 2.20-7-4 patch (& splashy) gdm doesn't seem to stop properly. Something else in the shutdown process kills it and the machine will reboot/shutdown without user intervention if splashy is not used, but if splashy is used the vt8 is never activated until the user manually does it via a keyboard action.
Could you revert the changes to patch 52? I of course have no idea why I only see this bug only on my two intel-based laptops and not on a Sid virtual machine or on a AMD/nvidia desktop; I just mention that in case there are problems reproducing this report. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
