I upgraded, but the behavior is unchanged. (I switched to runlevel 1
and then back to 2, but did not reboot. I hope that's sufficient.)
I also forgot to mention that sometimes when I logout (from KDE) the
process seems to get hung up while it is killing the windows, and it
just sits there with a few windows showing. If I click on a window (or
switch back to vt7 if I've been in vt2) the shutdown then proceeds. It
still hangs as described in my original report after all that.
In case it's relevant, my packages are a couple days old because I've
been getting the BADSIG error from apt and I'm waiting for the condition
to clear.
Thanks for your very quick response.
Ross
