Question #78229 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78229

    Status: Needs information => Open

LEGOManiac gave more information on the question:
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by the "ssh command"? Do you mean
the command I used during an SSH session to shut down the computer? If
so, these were the commands I listed earlier:

sudo init 6

... for example, simply puts up a message that the computer is going
down for a restart now (I may be confusing it with "sudo reboot") but
nothing happens.


sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart

... puts up two lines - the first one says that it is stopping gdm    [OK]
, the second one says that it is starting gdm   [OK]

but again, there's no change on the local terminal.
