Description Jean Delvare 2012-01-25 08:24:10 UTC

If I upgrade the kernel to version 3.2, the "shutdown -P [TIME]" command stops working properly. Basically I have to run it twice for it to work, first attempt fails with the following error message in /var/log/messages:

systemd-shutdownd[2391]: Got request from unprivileged user. Ignoring.

The problem doesn't happen with the original 3.1 kernel from openSUSE 12.1.

I found a similar report at Red Hat:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=757628
They say that the problem comes from upstream kernel change:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=16e5726269611b71c930054ffe9b858c1cea88eb

And the fix would be in systemd:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=75d3fc60f88e08bf953063819a8a04b881d6db23

Frederic, I know we don't officially support kernel 3.2 in openSUSE 12.1, but a number of users may still run that for various reasons. May I ask that the commit above is included in the next maintenance update of systemd? Thanks.

I've pushed this patch and a few other related to home:fcrozat:systemd / systemd. Please test.

I tested with package systemd-37-3.133.1.x86_64, on kernels 3.1.0, 3.2.1 and 3.3-rc1, and "shutdown -P [TIME]" worked fine every time. Thanks Frederic!

Thanks.

I'll close this bug when maintenance update is pushed.
