Bug Description

Hi,

When I'm boot my computer and the Gnome Shell login screen appears, if I try to reboot the computer from the menu available in the top right, the button does nothing.

I tried clicking multiple times, my computer won't reboot.

However, If i'm logged into my desktop, and then ask for a reboot, it works.

So either there is a permission issue to reboot on Gnome Shell login screen, or there is a deeper issue here.

Thanks.
