When Ubuntu shuts down, it sends all processes the TERM signal and then
the KILL signal (At least I think so). RedNotebook tries to catch the
TERM signal and saves the entries. If the KIll signal is sent however,
no process can catch it and the process is killed right away.

Hope this clarifies the situation a bit,
