Created attachment 8911 Action button on panel Selecting 'Shutdown' from action button drop-down performs nothing, not even an error message. Shutdown accomplished by opening terminal and direct command.
Update: "performs nothing" should read "only the 30 second popup window opens, and when pressing 'Shutdown' button nothing happens".
Any related message(s) in your ~/.xsession-errors file? Anything in the system log?
Created attachment 8914 Panel/Applications/Log Out/Log out USERNAME popup window
Nothing in ~/.xsession-errors, systemd journal. Also Panel/Applications/Log Out/Log out USERNAME popup window button:'Shut Down' does nothing
What operating system is that? Does it work when using another user account? Does the command "xfce4-session-logout --fast --halt" generate any terminal output?
[ljohnson@KISE-066 ~]$ xfce4-session-logout --fast --halt Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Manjaro x86_64 updated daily, no other user, Mythtv client HDTV HTPC , is one of four manjaro systems at site. manjaro is a rolling release based on archlinux
Problem exacerbated, no 'suspend' also failing to perform.
That is no surprise. The error message in comment #6 indicates a fundamental problem with your Xfce session. Did you check if the bug is present on a different user account?
There is only one user, me on this system. Do you want me to create a new user?
Added new user, XFCE shut down using action button drop-down.
Apparently XFCE will not shutdown or suspend while Mythtv client is running.
Maybe this is the same issue as reported in bug 14429.
Likely cause is Mythtv not responding to Shutdown. Suggest closing this bug.
Should read Mythtv client
There is no error dialog presented to the user, so I think we should keep the report open.
