>> Occasionally [my X] desktop hangs, in which case I usually can goto tty1 and `sudo shutdown -whatever now`. [But I believe] I should utter something from tty1 (before `shutdown`) to tell Emacs to shutdown cleanly ... but I don't know what to say.
Thanks all! To make this more findable, and to allow better annotation (since my not-quite-complete solution still has problems), I have made http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/18171/how-to-tell-graphical-emacs-to-shutdown-cleanly-from-tty1/18172#18172 . Your assistance cleaning up the remaining problems (indicated @ link target) would be much appreciated.

> [another] relevant question is, why is your X hanging?
Relevant, but not currently pressing, due to
- *much* bigger problems in my life :-(
+ my X hangs with f < monthly
~ I suspect it's due to the relative immaturity of Cinnamon (but ICBW--I'm certainly no expert in this domain)
Your assistance is appreciated! Tom Roche <Tom_Roche@pobox.com>
