Comment 2 for bug 173655

I have a new install of 7.10 Gutsy with all updates. I followed your instructions to upgrade to 8.04 hardy by using the commands provided in terminal. After issuing the command "update-manager -d" it downloaded about 190 mgs of files and installed. After the install I did a reboot and was unable to get Hardy's desktop because of a /etc/X11/xorg issue. I then did a new install of 7.10 Gutsy.
 My computer ( pe865, 2.6Ghz P4, 1.75 gig memory, 80 gig wd sata Hd ) has a separate 9 gig home partition, 1 gig swap, and balance for /. With the original Gutsy install I had the ability to shut down my system 5 ways by hitting quit in system. A screen would pop up and give me the choices.
Now when I hit quit, it immediately shuts down and goes to a gnome log in screen that has a large bar at the bottom with choices on the left and a box in the desktop middle that allows you to log in with user name and password.
 Do you need anything else?
