I can't see any logs as syslog has already been shut down at this point, and it happens whether I shutdown as root from the console or by using the KDE widget. /home here is on LVM I could probably debug this easily enough if I could determine how the shutdown sequence is ordered, or get a verbose output. But sadly, my fu for such stuff has run out. Anyone got pointers on where to start poking around? [I'm not looking for solutions, I'm unlikely to get those right off the bat, just looking for pointers atm] -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckinnon@gmail.com
