[Bug 445953] Re: shutdown asks for password with only 1 user logged in

 

This has been fixed upstream now (by adding support for --user).  Any
future 0.23 based on r23521 or later will contain this fix.  You can
grab a 0.23 based build from http://mythbuntu.org/auto-builds for Karmic
or Lucid.  This bug will be automatically closed when a 0.23 based build
is uploaded to the current development Ubuntu release (Lucid Lynx).

Keep in mind that 0.23 is not backwards compatible with and 0.22 based
machine, so if you upgrade one machine, you'll have to upgrade them all.

** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gdm

from reading similar but not directly related bug reports, I don't know if this gdm or fast-user-switch, so since i'm not actually switching users I'm going with gdm.

system upgraded from jaunty to karmic
power prefs set to ask on power button press
login 1 user
press power button, click shutdown or wait for the timeout
I get a prompt saying other users are logged in and need a password to shutdown.
with this prompt active, I ctrl-alt-f1 and login and run "sudo who".  this lists my account on tty1 and tt7, as it should, there are no other users logged in.  this was not a problem on jaunty and as I understand it, I should not get this prompt.
