Hi,

Thanks for your bug report, and helped to improve Mythbuntu.

This is caused by the lack of ConsoleKit usage, which has been
previously reported.  I'll mark this bug as a duplicate accordingly.

   XFCE4-Session doesn't use the ConsoleKit interface to shutdown or reboot

Bug description:
I upgraded to Mythbuntu 9.10 one week ago.  I like most of the changes.  However:

After clicking on Applications -> Shut-down/Log-out, the user is transferred to the sign-on screen, which has a small "power" button in the bottom right-hand corner.  Clicking on this brings up a small panel with 3 choices, one of which is Shut-down.

The first time that my wife needed to shut-down the PC, she could not work out what to do.  When I showed her, she had difficulty seeing the "buttons" (on a 40 inch screen).  She asked, why was this changed from 9.04, where there was no ambiguity, with the shut-down choices clearly displayed in the middle of the screen?

I think that it is a good idea to have a shut-down choice on the log-on screen, but couldn't we also have the old style of shut-down?

Regards, Garry.
