end session doesn't work

[Sandra Farnedi]

I have just started edubuntu, activated the wireless connection and, before adding any other user, I choose to end my session.
My screen starts flashing showing alternatively the two attached screens.

Hi Sandra,
Thanks for your bug report and for your contribution to Ubuntu.
In order to determine if this issue is usplash related, please boot your computer with usplash disabled and then shutdown to see if you can reproduce the issue? To disable usplash for a single boot, follow these steps:

1. Hold Esc during Grub boot delay to access the boot menu.
2. Select your actual Ubuntu boot line and press "e" to edit it.
3. Select the "kernel" line and press "e" to edit it.
4. At the end of the line, remove "splash" and "quiet" and press "enter".
5. Type "b" to boot the custom boot line.

Please do this on a clean image of Edubuntu (without the new user).
Can you also verify the MD5SUM of the .iso image (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM)?

Thanks,
Paolo

I'll try to perform the steps you ask, asap. I want only to point out
that I have the problem when I log out from edubuntu default user and no
other user as been already defined. No problem if I shut down the
system.

My edubuntu presistent live version works correctly, I experience the
problem just logging out without any user defined but edubuntu.
