I had again the old problem about Kmix related to shutdown, hibernate etc buttons. The only thing I do is sudo reboot in hope to when the system start the Kmix appear in the bar; for I can shutdown the notebook using the shutdown button by the menu.
But I must to reboot 5 times to achieve that now.
I know is something related between Kmix and shutdown buttons because I read that in a blog that I not can find now. Is an issue a little difficult to get solution because is difficult to do the search. I wrote many ways to refer the problem but all the results are about mic, usb even Windows things and other stuff.
I did to a dist-upgrade in the hope that by update it must solved the issue but nothing happened.
Ok that's it. I just refer the problem because searching I have not answer. Sorry my poor english and my null knowledge about this things. I use a notebook HP if this is important.
Thanks.

Hello.
This is what I get by kmix in the Konsole:

:~$ kmix
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QDBusObjectPath)

I occasionally have something similar happening on my system, and never checked if the shutdown not working and the kmix not starting were related.

Anyway, instead of rebooting, have you tried simply starting kmix by looking for it in the menu, or typing "kmix" in a terminal?

Hi. Yes, I do that every time that this issue happening, this is by konsole:

:~$ kmix
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QDBusObjectPath)
Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QDBusObjectPath)

And Kmix start very well and function normally. But then, when I need to shutdown the computer, I can't because I click on shutdown button in the menu but nothing happen, so I must to reboot by Konsole, over and over until Kmix start by the beginning in order to be available to shutdown the computer in a normal way, I mean clicking the shutdown button in the menu. :cry:

Yeah it seems to be the same issue here, but I'm not too bothered as I can easily launch kmix myself at the beginning of the session, and then shutdown quite quickly with:

Code: Select all

sudo shutdown -h now
Would like to hear about a fix if you find one though.

I didn't found any solution. I don't know why I don't like to use the shutdown command, is just me :D
In this last days the kmix started normally except a few times, but with just one reboot was fixed.
