Kde: reboot through menu delays

Hi,
I'm new to Archlinux but have set-up everything so far. I've only one problem left: If I try to reboot/shutdown my laptop through the menu option (I'm using kdemod), it takes 10 seconds until it actually reacts and starts the reboot process. But if I type 'reboot' in console it starts the reboot process immediately.
I've checked the messages.log but there are no differences between shell and gui reboot:
This is what I get if do 'reboot' in console:
Oct 25 15:38:44 konqui sudo: user : TTY=pts/1 ; PWD=/var/log ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/sbin/reboot
Oct 25 15:38:44 konqui shutdown[7559]: shutting down for system reboot
Oct 25 15:38:44 konqui init: Switching to runlevel: 6
Oct 25 15:38:46 konqui NetworkManager: <WARN> nm_signal_handler(): Caught signal 15, shutting down normally.
Oct 25 15:38:46 konqui NetworkManager: <info> Caught terminiation signal
Oct 25 15:38:46 konqui NetworkManager: <info> Deactivating device eth0.
Oct 25 15:38:46 konqui dhclient: There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient-eth0.pid with pid 7351
Oct 25 15:38:46 konqui dhclient: killed old client process, removed PID file
Oct 25 15:38:46 konqui dhclient: DHCPRELEASE on eth0 to <my-ip> port 67
And this if I go through K-Menu and Select Reboot:
Oct 25 15:41:32 konqui shutdown[7589]: shutting down for system reboot
Oct 25 15:41:33 konqui init: Switching to runlevel: 6
Oct 25 15:41:34 konqui NetworkManager: <WARN> nm_signal_handler(): Caught signal 15, shutting down normally.

Maybe ask in the kdemod forums (http://kdemod.ath.cx/bbs) if it only happens with kdemod

  • [Solved] Reboot pulldown menu in KDE4

    I wonder if someone succeed in enabling this feature under archlinux, with kde 4. 
    I have the line "default saved" in my menu.lst and I have also added the line "savedefault" at the end of each boot section. The reboot pulldown menu appears and give me the choice of what to reboot with, but it doesn't have any effect (it always reboot with the first boot section written in the grub).
    Maybe I missed something ? [edit] solved with KDE 4.4.

    Yes, but this faultly behaviour only occurs with the use of the kde4 reboot pulldown menu (the command "grub-set-default" works well).
    This is my menu.lst :

    Hi,
    You can define a Form Function filling the basic information and
    HTML call Set as OracleOasis.RunDiscoverer. You can even define Paramters during the form function registration. With this definition you will able to create a link to a Discoverer workbook that will automatically open Discoverer Plus or Viewer to display the workbook using Apps security.

  • WRT160NL - reset/reboot through web interface

    Hello there,
    Is it possible to reboot / reset the router remotely by using the web interface? On SMC routers that option is available and is of great value.
    I'm using my WRT160NL with a usb hub (powered) so I can connect 2 hard drives at the same time. Yesterday I had a problem (hard drives disappeared) and I had get physically to the router to unplug/re-plug the usb hub so I could see the drives again (if i was not at home that would be a pain).
    Thank you

    Hello, I just went through a factory reset of my new WRT160NL router because I could not log my MAC machines onto it. It was reset, setup with WPA and my MAC does see it but when I type in password, I get an error message that it is an invalid password. Now, when I connect to my IBM laptop, it sees it, asks for key and then allows me to connect. How can I get my 2 MACs to recognize and use the new router?

  • Form when running through menu

    Hi
    I have a form - and when I run it from forms, it runs with the a toolbar up the top with icons for save, delete record etc. However when I run it through a menu (.mmb), it doesn't have this toolbar at the top. How do I make it show this toolbar when running from a menu?
    Thanks
    Martin

    Sorry, I didn't see your reply before.
    I think the problem could be that you specify No_Replace. This means that [Oracle Forms will keep the default menu module of the calling form active for the called form|http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/forms/10g/topics/f1_help/builta_c/callform.html?tp=true].
    You should look into using the FORMS_PATH variable instead of using the full path to the form, it's not essential but it's more flexible. On earlier versions this is FORMS90_PATH, FORMS60_PATH etc, and is set in the .ENV file (assuming you're on webforms).

  • Can't get Wine menu in KDE tried editting menu

    I'm a new Arch User. I followed a YouTube video to get me started and I read the beginners wiki afterwards. I've been using Ubuntu based distros for 1 1/2 - 2 years. I'm loving arch linux since it is very light and I've been able to get most of my packages from either the AUR or the official repos.
    Info:
    ArchLinux x86_64 Kernel 3.6.3-1-ARCH
    QUESTION:
    I installed wine like this
    sudo pacman -S wine winetricks wine_gecko
    I noticed when I opened the KDE menu, no Wine menu was in Applications like in Ubuntu. ?
    I tried following https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … Fix.5B1.5D
    But it did not work.
    Can someone help? Thanks

  • Compiz + XFCE4 - desktop launcher menu aka start menu delay/click

    The little X down in the left hand corder.  I click it and the menu pops up like it is supposed to.  But when I head into the menu I usually click the submenu that I would want to go into "accessories" "development", etc.
    The problem is that sometimes when I click the menu does not respond.  I have to move to another menu, hover, and then try again on another menu.
    I have a feeling it may be something with my compiz settings.  I have it fully intergrated.  That is I do not use fusion-icon or whatever to load compiz...I configured it to hard run with XFCE4 via the XFCE config/xml file.
    Any ideas?  I would even, for now, settle with the sub menus poping up instantaniously instead of with a delay.
    Though I would like to fix it.
    Thanks,
    Web...

    Not sure if this is the same issue but I saw a delay (not in time necessarily) with all the xfce menus; they wouldn't show up until after I clicked AND moved over some of the items. I switched on indirect rendering in compiz (fusion-icon, right click, compiz options) and it seems like it's better, though on occasion I do feel like there's the same delay issue. It's a lot less annoying though. Hope that helps...

  • Tweaking the KDE 4 Shutdown Menu

    hi friends,
    i'm messing around with kde4 right now and i really like it so far, there's just one issue i can't solve:
    i'm starting my desktop from the command line after a normal login via the startx command without any displaymanager like kdm.
    this means that the kde shutdown menu doesn't show any options to shutdown or restart the computer, so i just wanted to ask you guys whether it's possible to tweak the menu in some way to integrate own commands like "sudo shutdown -h now" or "sudo pm-suspend" etc.
    thanks,
    trx

    Do you absolutely need to start kde this way ?
    Try using 'startkde' (/usr/bin/startkde) instead of 'startx'.

  • Cannot get mac to reboot with menu for archive save

    My iphoto is not working correctly since installing Leopard. Mac genius recommended that I take it home, hit the C key while rebooting...then go into a menu to do an archive save. My computer will not do this...any reason why?

    Hi Tryin2luvMac.
    Welcome to the world of Mac!! Your name will change to iluvMac sooner or later!!
    By hitting the C key while rebooting means boot from CD or DVD. Did you inserted the CD or DVD?

  • Main menu delay

    Hi, a friend of mine is having a small problem and I really can't understand what's going on: when he moves the slider to access the main menu page his iPhone takes bout 5 (five) seconds to show it. It seems to me this is a very long delay and I was wondering if anybody is experiencing this odd behavior.
    Thanks for your time.

    No, that is just powering the phone on and off.
    A reset is hold the sleep/wake and home button until the Apple logo appears while ignoring the slide to turn off.
    Thanks, apparently it did work.

  • Run Report Through Menu in 10g

    Hi Gurus
    I am new to Development. I have managed to create a .jsp file using Report Builder in 10g. This report has user-defined parameter. I also have a Form with Menu. Now I want to add a menu item so that when user click on it the report that I just created should run on web.

    Please help me!
