OK, I've uploaded packages for maverick now. If you're reading this
very shortly after I posted you might have to wait a few minutes while
the server builds the binary packages.

Hi Tony.

Your packages don't seem to be overriding the Ubuntu ones just yet.

The reboot probably scheduled an update of the packages lists, which you
can do manually, either from update manager or 'sudo apt-get update'
from the CLI.

Shutdown/Reboot Ubuntu

How do you shutdown/reboot Ubuntu from ROX-Session?

Logout works fine in home-built ROX-Session 0.41.0 (unlike in 0launch
ROX-Session where even Logout is broken) but Shutdown or Reboot does
not. No problem in Debian Lenny/Squeeze/Sid so I guess this might be
related to Ubuntu's disabled root account but I have no idea how to
fix it.

Re: Shutdown/Reboot Ubuntu

The problem is that the 'shutdown' command used by IceWM can be executed only by 
root. (This is the default case for most (all?) Linuxes.) Here are a few 
choices:

1) Use sudo to give permission to regular users to execute the 'shutdown' 
command without password prompting. This requires editing your sudoers file 
(with visudo) but is probably better than the following option. I set my box up 
so all member of the 'plugdev' group can execute 'shutdown'. I did this by using 
visudo to add:

%plugdev ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown

as the last line in the sudoers file. To power down, configure IceWM to use:

sudo shutdown -hP now

To reboot:

sudo shutdown -r now

2) Set the 'sticky' bit on the shutdown command to give all users the ability to 
execute the 'shutdown' command directly. The problem with this approach is that 
if the 'shutdown' command get an update in the future, you will have to set the 
sticky bit again. As root:

chmod u+s /sbin/shutdown

(I think this is correct! I haven't done this in a while.)

3) If you have Openbox and GDM installed as well, you can use 'gdm-control' to

Re: Shutdown/Reboot Ubuntu

Doh! Sorry ... I thought this was from the IceWM mailing list (which I also 
follow). If the info I provided can be used to fix your problem, great. If not, 
please forgive my bad.

I just use gksu halt, gksu reboot and gksu pm-suspend (in the power 
management section of ROX-Session/Session Settings).

I cheat. :-)

I've removed one Ubuntu/Xubuntu panel to make space for the ROX 'icon bar'.
But this means I still have the Ubuntu/Xubuntu shutdown icon on the
'remaining' *buntu panel. 

FWIW With CrunchBang Linux the key shortcut that provides for a shutdown
still works when using ROX.

Slainte,

Jim
