Any feedback from this? openSUSE KDE seems to be unaffected.

I remember having this problem on 11.2 GM. It no longer happens on Factory, so I believe it was fixed by a newer GNOME version. Not sure if the fix will be back ported to 11.2.

Hi, so does that mean that no fixes will be avialable? It has also happened on my HP 2140 netbook.

That's something for the GNOME team to answer.

I'm having the same problem with openSUSE 11.2 on my Thinkpad T400 when trying to shutdown via "Computer -> Shutdown -> Shut Down".

a) Sometimes the shutdown works properly
b) Sometimes the shutdown just takes me back to GDM login ==> Then I'm able to log in again
c) Sometimes the shutdown just takes me back to GDM login ==> When I try to log in again, openSUSE continues the shutdown after the "keydown" of the last char/symbol of my password (without pressing "enter" or clicking somewhere)

Very strange... and very annoying.

GNOME is ok in Fedora 12 and Ubuntu 9.10. Seems like an openSUSE 11.2 issue.
