Bug#735628: gdm3: Does not restart system when clicking {Restart}

Dear Andreas,

I can't find the missing part in /var/log/syslog. The console output
seem mostly to stop at "Starting fancontrol...".

Regarding to portmap; that's true, but it was not obvious for me at
first that I have to delete the old portmap configuration files to make
rpcbind working again. :-)

I have another small question; Can you tell me how I can set the banner
text in GDM v3.8? I tried with dconf and the configuration files
under /etc/gdm3 but nothing seems to work.

I attached my greetings.gsettings file. It now seems to be ignored by
GDM 3.8.

With many greetings,

Adrian
