      Dear Fedora users,

      I have recently experienced a problem with the lxde desktop.

      I have updated my linux machine from FEDORA 20 to FEDORA 21
      Workstation then I have installed lxde with the following command:

                                                                               
          yum -y install @lxde-desktop 

      Since then, when I try to log out by selecting logout from the
      task bar menu, nothing happens and my session keeps going on. If I
      select reboot or shutdown from the same menu, it acts normally.

      Previously, I was using FEDORA 20 with lxde and I never had any
      problems with the logout.

      
      Any help will be welcome.

      Thanks in advance.

      
      Regards.

    According to satanselbow (third post on this
      discussion) you should have a glance at what might be going
    amiss with lxde-logout. 

    
    If all else fails and you're in a real hurry, save your work and run
    something like "kill -s 15 -1" to ask all your processes to be
    (gracefully?) ended. This should drop you back to your greeter. I
    acknowledge this is a dirty solution, but if you haven't other
    options this may serve you better than rebooting every time.
