Hello. I'm a regular user and after installing Trinity with Raring packages in Mint 15, system won't shutdown/restart but hangs at plymouth. Is there a workaround for this because I have to use REISUO to shutdown and REI part doesn't work because for some reason it's disabled. Please help. (I've installed and reinstalled several times and issue occurs only with trinity desktop. I usually install only kdebase-trinity with kmix-trinity and compiz-trinity packages. Thanks.
I can not help much but I have the same problem. I've found a dirty work around that helped me somewhat.
in /etc/init.d/sendsigs I changed line 124 if [ $seq -ge 300 ] ; then against if [ $seq -ge 30 ] ; then
Here system waits for any jobs in stop/killed state for 300 seconds to terminate. Unfortunately a trinity job (might be hald, can't remeber exactly) does not terrminate. Thus the system waits 5 minutes to continue the shutdown. I shortened this time to 30 seconds. It now shuts down but does not switch off.
