Romano, I would advise against using that workaround as you're essentially bypassing the gnome-session and forcing a shutdown. The safer way to shutdown is to first disable QS, then do as usual.
The more I read about this the more I think QS should be completely removed, but that is an entirely different issue (and not one I am pursuing actively). This bug seems to be one step towards that: "OpenOffice quickstarted shouldn't have a notification icon" https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/230196 -- [ooo-build] OOo QuickStarter: unable to shutdown / reboot / logout when quickstarter is active https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/562027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
