I noticed something in FC2 with regards to shutdown...

Most of the time, shutting down from a Gnome desktop or from GDM, I see 
the listing of services being killed (the one with the [OK] thing, 
similar to the startup process).

But there are times when I don't see this. What happens is all the Gnome 
stuff ends (gnome-panel, nautilus, etc), and all I see, while shutting 
down is my wallpaper. When X gets killed, I see the standard console 
login prompt for a moment. Then shutdown. No service shutdown listing. 
Very clean. It seems not as I get it maybe 1 out of 10 shutdowns.
