Syslog output (22.46 KB, text/plain) 2006-08-19 17:40 UTC, FK	Details

Description FK 2006-08-19 17:39:07 UTC

Please describe the problem:
When I select action in the login screen and then select 'Suspend Computer' and press ok, SuspendCommand (configured in gdm.conf) is not executed. Though the other actions do work. I tried the same command in the other actions and then it did work.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select Action
2. Select Suspend Computer
3. Press Ok


Actual results:
nothing

Expected results:
The action specified in gdm.conf should be executed

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
I put gdm in debug mode and made a copy of syslog:

Syslog output

Comment 2 Brian Cameron 2006-08-21 18:32:59 UTC

Okay, let's look at the code in daemon/gdm.c together.  Note that the gdm_handle_message () fucntion is printing out the "Handling message ..."
that we see in your syslog output.

Note that there is a big if-else block that includes a test for GDM_SOP_SUPEND_MACHINE.  It looks like you are not falling into this if-test
because the "Master suspending..." message should appear in your log if you have debug on if the code falls into this if-test, and I don't see this in your syslog.

This indicates that perhaps the if-test is failing for some reason.  Might be useful to add additional debug to see which one it is falling into.  Note that this if-else block has no "else" at the end to print out a debug message saying "could not recognize message" or something. 

Note that there is a known bug about this problem (345829) and the GDM code was patched on 06/25/2006.  This fix went into 2.15.6 and 2.14.10.  Are you using an
earlier version?  If so, try upgrading and see if that fixes your problem.  Or you can try applying the patch for this fix to your code and that should also fix the problem.  Refer to bug 345829 for the patch.

(In reply to comment #2)

I use gdm v2.14.9 and so this is most probably the same bug (sorry I missed it).
I will mark this as an duuplicate
