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.
