hi,

i run into this problem, calling for shutdown or restart wont work, and cant 
find any logs on that. when xserver closes there is mess on screen and i 
loose any control over - just power button. Any ideas where to look? I dont 
keep track but possibly this is after baselayout and udev upgrade.

Do you mean it _used_ to work, and doesn't any more, or it never worked
properly?

Do you have a laptop?

What display driver are you using for X?

Are you using a framebuffer console?

I suspect it may be your X driver conflicting with your framebuffer
driver.

HTH,

Do you mean xorg error logs and /var/log/messages say nothing?

What happens if you try to switch to a console with your xserver still open?
Anyway you can halt from inside X...

i can do that, and i can switch back. ok, ill try halt from console, not kdm 
or gdm provided shutdown and restart.

Hmm.
It seems X f***s up your video memory, or something of this kind.

What video card and corresponding Xorg driver are you using?

Hi,

Shuting down from console (X still runing) goes well but from within X it 
fails, is there different scripts with different order services are shut 
down?
