Hi Kevin,

 

It appears to be that an other troublemaker is the culprit. SELinux in permissive mode (!?) blocks the reboot/shutdown action and/or 'replaces' it by a log out. In restrictive mode logging in takes more than 30 seconds to succeed. Now, SELinux disabled, everyting works smooth. Also the nepomuk crashes [1] are gone. There must be something very wrong with SELinux, I'll file a bug report against it. :-)

 

Thanks,

Update: It looks like SELinux in permissive mode isn't blocking reboot/shut down. Running with SELinux disabled also brings me to the log in screen. May be it is nevertheless a systemd issue. For the issues in enforcing mode (not restrictive) see report [1]
