Subject: gnome-shell: Long delay before power down happens
Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2013 07:03:22 +0100
Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.4.2-9
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When I attempt to shutdown the computer from within gnome there is a long delay before anything happens.

The same appears to be true for restart and suspend options too.

I select "Power Off" from the menu under my name and almost immediately a dialog box is displayed which
asks if I wish to Shutdown, Restart or Cancel.  WHen I select one, the screen slightly greys out and I can no longer 
do anything, but nothing else happens for about a minute - it is as though something finally times out.

Then the shutdown sequence starts.

During shutdown there is another delay just after the console reports all tasks been asked to terminate and 
when it does proceeed the system doesn't power off, but restarts (I don't think this is related but an independant problem)

I have just rebooted after attempting various other ways of shutting down.

In particular, I killed the X session (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace) and then when 
it restarted tried to shutdown.

When I cancelled the first dialog box another one appeared with the 
exact same thing on it.


Having now shutdown completely, temporarily rebooted into Debian Wheezy, 
and then rebooted back into Sid, I am getting this double dialog box all 
the time.

Unfortunately at the moment I need to run Debian Stable on my desktop so 
difficult to do.  I have been running Debian stable for about 6 months 
and have had no occurence of this problem at that version 3.4.2-7
