reboot/shutdown broken after a cooker 2008.1

Hi,

 

I successfully installed all latest cooker 2008.1 packages onto my 2008.0 powerpack system because I was missing some 2008.0 packages etc but now the reboot/shutdown etc commands don't work e.g. 'reboot' from root or user terminal start but there's blank space underneath for over 30 seconds and the terminal session window can be closed

 

I can't find any solutions.

 

I didn't create a swap because there's 4GB ram.

 

Space/partitions:

 

[root@localhost ecstasy]# df -k

/dev/sde			   8273920		76   8273844   1% /media/removable

 

I've reinstalled 'bootsystem', 'initscripts' and 'sysvinit' but it's the same.

 

I renamed and replaced some files with the updated .rpmnew etc files .orig.

 

Is there a file which has been misconfigured causing this?

 

Is there anyway to safely reboot/shutdown now?

 

Would a hardware reset affect the updates?

 

Thanks

Tom

In KDE Control Centre.........KDE Components..........Session Manager......General ......... Have you checked thst there are ticks in the two boxes ???.

 

 

If there are not then select them both then click Apply and see if that works.
