I should note that this suggestion is primarily for unresponsive processes. Unlike Windows, attempting to shut down the system in Linux will tell each application to close, allowing it to prompt you if needed. For instance: If you have an unsaved image in Gimp and try to shut down, Gimp will ask you "do you want to save" as if you clicked the X button on its window. However if Gimp froze in the background for any reason, giving the system a shutdown command will either do nothing or potentially close the desktop and leave you stuck in a black screen. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 390515 *** |
