Shutdown from LXDE

I followed the wiki to enable shutdown on LXDE, but it is not working.
I endabled HAL and DBUS. This makes the options appear, but when I press the buttons I get back the desktop.
The wiki says to edit /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf, but I can't see the file. How can I fix the problem?

  • IMac will only restart or shutdown from power button.

    My iMac will only restart or shutdown from the power button, it also will not logoff users. It starts ok, but only after a hard reboot?? I have repaired permisions and no change. I have a clone I can restore from but any ideas whats up here?
    The only things that I know I have altered are deleting files saved during migration from Panther (months ago)and running Unbuntu Live CD.
    iMac G4 15 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 728ram

    Are you booting into Ubuntu Linux? Most of us here wouldn't now anything to do with it. If the problem is occurring when booted into Mac OS X, it may be a sign of data corruption in the power management and user settings. Some corruption is easy to repair such as fixing the directory (which I'd only do after a clone). Here's how according to my FAQ:
    http://www.macmaps.com/directoryfaq.html

  • Scripting question: Is there a difference between shutdown from within the VM and using the WMIService InitiateShutdown

    Hi,
    Are there any problems with shutting down a virtual machine using a script?  (example of shutdown script here). 
    In this case, I want to start VM's in a particular sequence and timing, and then reverse the sequence and timing for shutdown.  The built-in settings of hyper-V haven't been adequate.
    Is the command "ShutdownList.ItemIndex(0).InitiateShutdown(True,"script
    shutdown")" the same thing as initiating a GUI activated shutdown process?
    If not, does commanding a shutdown from the host using a script cause
    any system problems inside the VM?  If so, are there other or better ways to accomplish this?
    Thanks.

  • [SOLVED] I cannot shutdown from Xfce

    I use arch 64 bit, xfce 4.4.1 and kdm. After update today I can no longer shutdown from xfce - I can only log out to kdm, and then shutdown.
    I am in group 'power' and I have /opt/xfce4/libexec/xfsm-shutdown-helper in sudoers, but that file (xfsm-shutdown-helper) seem to no longer exist in that place or anywhere else in my hdd. What should I do?

    to enable shutdown via hal, just add your user to the power group and make sure hal is running. easy as that.
    How should I start hal? Should I add it to deamons on /etc/rc.conf?
    yes
    It works. Thanks!

  • Startup and shutdown from command line with version 9i

    Hi, i'm an Oracle newbie. I heard it's possible to startup and shutdown an oracle (instance? or database? which one is it) from the command line.
    A little background on what it is that I want to do:
    I'm looking to backup a database by copying the files that make up the database to a location from where they will be commited to tape media. To do this I must shutdown the database, copy the files, and startup the database again.
    At the moment the backups are full exports which I find unnecessary since it is a development database which is never used at night. It is therefore not an issue if we want to shut it down and re-start it after a few minutes. (I think it would take longer to export as opposed to copy the files right?)
    I need help and advice :
    1. Is my way of going about this correct ?
    2. How do I startup/shutdown from the command line (sqlplus user/password command) or should I use another utility ?
    Thanks,
    Gabriel

    set oracle_sid=ORCL ==> your database namethis is NOT always true. It's instance name. usually, we set instance name is same as database name.But we also can set instance name is different from database name.
    for example.

    C:\>set ORACLE_SID=abc123

  • How do I shutdown from within Genome??

    How do I shutdown from within Genome??
    There is only a logout option - and that do not work.
    If I open a terminal and enter init 5 nothing happens.
    Or so it seems some services maybe stop.
    BUT there is no logoff and shutdown of Genome. So I swicth
    off my pc and next time I boot up my file system was corrupted.
    FSCK did not work I end up install everything this time use bypass
    option and install the patches for PC-Solaris 8.
    How do I go to a command line environment within Genome
    a .dtconfig stop ?? Will this let Genome come down without
    booting up and loosing my system again??

    ok... i figured it out... a 'Sprite' is really also a DisplayObjectContainer... so if i make my class an extension of Sprite i can 'addChild' to the Sprite and then add them all to the stage at once by adding Sprite to the stage...

  • [SOLVED] How do I shutdown from SLIM ?

  • Disable shutdown from console

    Does anyone know if there is an easy way to restrict access to the "Commands" page
    (the page where you see the buttons for Shutdown, Cancel Shutdown, Disable Logins,
    etc.) from the Weblogic v5.1 console? The problem I have is that due to some
    high ranking staff wanting to be able to access the console, I do not want them
    to have access to that page in case they accidentally shutdown the server. If
    it is not possible, is there some kind of hack which can be implemented which
    will allow me to disable at least the Shutdown from the console? (ie. the name
    of the class being invoked, so I can rename it or something).
    I am not sure how to handle this issue, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Jim

    You could create users for them and set-up the ACLs the way you want them to be. As
    far as I remember there is an ACL for the shutdown from the console, so you should be
    able to achieve what you want to do.
    Cheers,

  • Is there anyway to shutdown from Terminal

    My aging G5 running Leopard is hanging up at random times. Up to now, I have had to shut down the machine by pushing and holding the power switch. I know this is a bad thing to do, but I do not know any other way.
    Is there any special set of keystrokes that will bring up the terminal from a hung up machine and allow me then shut it down ????
    Thanks for your help.
    Dick B

    Hi Dick, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Nothing at all may work depending where/how it's froze, but the key combo of Control+Eject, (F12), may bring up the Restart/Shutdown Dialog box and the 1st letter of each will selct that button.
    CommandOptionesc = Bring up Force Quit window
    CommandControleject = Restart immediately
    CommandOption+Controleject = Shutdown immediately
    CommandControlpower button = Force restart

  • Windows service does not stop when DB is shutdown from SQL*Plus

    I have a 11g XE DB in a Windows 7 machine.
    The installation has created a Windows service called OracleServiceXE. It's status is STARTED.
    I then login to SQLPLUS as sysdba and do a shutdown immediate;
    SQL> shutdown immediate
    Database closed.
    Database dismounted.
    ORACLE instance shut down.
    Problem is, when I refresh the services, the OracleServiceXE is still showing as STARTED.
    If I use the listener control to stop the listener the Windows service OracleXETNSListener changes status to BLANK.
    Why is this?

    tvCa-Oracle wrote:
    That service is a prerequisite Windows service to be able to start the database, but it is not the status of the database itself.
    When you do start the database, he may or may not start the service automatically (not sure there), but it is a needed service, for each database SID, on Windows.
    If you want to know what it is, open Task Manager or Process Explorer, only start the service (not the database), and see which OS process is launched.
    AFAIK, this is only on Windows, there's no comparable component on Linux/Unix for this.
    The Windows service OracleServiceXE has c:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin\ORACLE.EXE XE as the Parth to executable.
    If I click on the Services tab in Task manager, then right-click the OracleServiceXE and click Go to process, it show the oracle.exe in the processes tab.
    If stop it, the service, from the Windows service control, the oracle.exe disappears and we cannot login to the DB.
    If we start the service from the windows service control, the oradim.exe appears, then a second later the oracle.exe appears. Once the DB status of the Windows service is STARTED, the oradim.exe disappears.
    So, I can start and stop the oracle DB with the Windows service. But If I stop the DB from sql*plus the the service is not stopped....

  • [solved] All menu items lost from LXDE menus

    I had problems with loading a USB flash drive, and music cd, and then X windows locked up completely, which led me to deinstall LXDE as well as the applications in an effort to get X windows working.  It turned out that all that was wrong was that dbus and hal hadn't been started after a reboot, so then I reinstalled LXDE and the applications, but now there is nothing on the LXDE menu except RUN and Logout.
    How do I get things on an LXDE menu or is there another gui that is able to build a menu from what exists?  I had hoped to run LXDE, but it looks pretty hopeless with no menus at this point...
    Thanks for any clues

    He's talking about the "start" menu, not app launchers.
    From what I understand, LXDE sets up its menu based on files in /etc/xdg/menus and /usr/share/applications.
    Currently, I have applications.menu, lxde-applications.menu, lxlauncher-applictaions.menu, and settings.menu in /etc/xdg/menus.
    The lxde-applications.menu controls the layout of the menu, adding programs based on the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications.

  • Shutdown from Lion, Mail stop the shutdown.

    Hello,
    i have the following problem. If i want to shutdown the iMac with menu - shutdown, i have often the problem, that mail stops the shutdown. Only a hard kill from mail will shutdown the mac. What can i do ? Has someone the some problem ?
    Thx

    iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)   <  your profile
    If that is correct, try updating your system software. Click your Apple menu > Software Update.
    And try "force quitting" using Activity Monitor (located in HD > Applications > Utilities) instead of Command + Option + E or force quit from the Apple menu.

  • Shutdown from a logoff script

    I have created a GPO that calls a  logoff script.  This script looks for other batchfiles and executes them.  I am using this method install an applications and then reboot.  However, when the batch file runs
    shutdown -r  -f -t 0, I get device not ready.  I there any way to either force a reboot from a logoff script? Or a way to abort the logoff when I am installing the app then force a reboot then? 

    What about using this only : shutdown -r  -f ?
    Does it works?
