poweroff/restart/logout problem

[leonchik1976]

I've installed gentoo with systemd, and when i try to perform any of this actions (poweroff/restart/logout) - everything completely hangs, but if i logged to gui as root - it works.
anyone faced the same problem?

Did you upgrade to systemd from an openrc implementation? If so, I just underwent such an effort, and these procedures might help:

• First, it helps if you're actually using a systemd make.profile to set your USE flags correctly.
  

  Code:

  eselect profile list

  
  
• recompile everything with a systemd USE component
  

  Code:

  emerge --oneshot --pretend $(qlist -ICv $(equery hasuse systemd)| sed 's/^/=/')

  
  
• now make sure everything else is up to date
  

  Code:

  emerge --update --deep --newuse @world revdep-rebuild

  
  
• make sure you're actually calling systemd as your init (in grub)
  
• reboot
  
• comb through "journalctl -b" output looking for any errors

this is a clean install with systemd profile. The journalctl -b shows nothing (i ran journalctl -f from ssh session) after i perform shutdown/restart/logoff, the whole system just completely hangs,
If i start system, and restart it without loggin in to user - it works, but the moment i logged as a normal user - i can't anymore shutdown/restart/logoff

It may be a permissions issue. Knowing where you are when it hang would help.

Do you login as normal user in a vritual terminal or with a display manager?

Is the user in some critical groups like video and audio?

Logout should be allowed to any user, but restart and shutdown the whole system may need some special permissions.

Did you check the /etc/systemd/logind.conf file and the manual page for it?

if system starts windows any display manager (directly to console), i'm able to poweroff/reset/logout as a regular user, the problem is only with gnome and kde

[leonchik1976]

i reinstalled the whole system - KDE - shutdown is normally, for GNOME - it takes about a minute to shutdown
