I have an old Samsung S20 laptop and have installed xbmc-standalone on to of Ubuntu Lucid 10.04.
I installed using the ppa and synaptic.
Everything seems to be working fine expect I cannot shutdown the PC from xbmc, using the shutdown option sends me back to the login screen if I'm running an xbmc session or the desktop if I run xbmc from a gnome session.
Exit XBMC, Reboot and Suspend all work OK.
I really need to be able to shutdown but I have not been able to find much info relating to this, can anyone help?
I have installed udisks, hal, upower, pm-utils and policykit
I've had exact same problem - xbmc would just drop back to console. Try flipping between shutdown/suspend/hibernate options a few times, then select shutdown and try again. It almost seems like there're 4 options, two of them are "shutdown" but only one actually works as expected.
Toggling does not work for me.
Exit xbmc, this works and drops me back to the login or desktop
shutdown, this seems to do the same thing as exit
suspend, this works perfectly
reboot, this also works.
Does anyone one else have any suggestions to get shutdown to work?
Here is a copy of the xbmc.log

hopefully this info may allow one of you to help me sort this out?
I have also installed xbmc on my desktop PC this evening and have the same issue, it will not shutdown
