Peach OSI TW 16.04 LTS build on Xubuntu, Kernel 4.4.0-217-generic. Problem with shutdown started with 4.4.0-216-generic and is still in 4.4.0-217-generic which is the newest kernel for my setup. If the machine has been idle for a while, sometimes with Firefox 88.0 open, sometimes after using VLC player - then it hangs on shutdown, Screen is off but wifi and bluetooth light is on(its off when totally shutdown). At this point not even ESC work(as the screen is off and never comes on), only by holding the power button the laptop turns off. Restarting sometimes work ok, but from time to time it can take up to 10 min to start up(where normal startup is 30seconds). Editing grub and adding noefi after quiet splash, worked for a while and then last night it would not shut down again and I had to use power button. this morning it started up normal 30seconds. I have had updates comming in, I have installed Intel graphic tool to update the driver but problem persist, so don't think its a graphic card driver issue. Many here has reported it on other systems with totally different config, so I think this is a kernel issue that seem to pass through in newer kernel updates. Also seem that it is not only 16.04 since it has been reported in newer versions too. I'm still using 16.04 because there is no 20.04 Peach(now named Patriot) after the author died in september this year - I might move to 20.04 or newer when most of the bugs has been addressed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594023 Title: Poweroff or reboot hangs. Laptop won't shutdown. 16.04 Status in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is about a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 install on a new laptop (asus x540sa). After pressing the shutdown button in the start menu; the shutdown procedure starts and in the final splash screen the system just hangs. Tried a second time by pressing Esc once the splash screen showed up and I saw that it reaches the line "Reached target shutdown" and just stops there, no matter how long I leave it there the machine won't turn off. I also tried a Kubuntu 16.04 fresh install on the same machine and it hanged too at the final splash screen where the pulsating logo stopped. Then I tried with Esc only to see the exact same line in the end. The issue seems to affect lately quite many users as shown by the google results of the past month / week or so. I have also tried shutting down from the console with shutdown -and all the parameters after that suggested online- and sudo poweroff but unfortunately they didn't do the trick. The exact same situation occurred. Unmounting the swap as suggested online doesn't work. Also rebooting the system is not working either due to the same issue. So right now the only way for me to poweroff the machine is to press the power button on the keyboard continuously. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install OS 2.Do something, anything or nothing 3.Try to shutdown or reboot Actual Results: The computer is not shutting down: "Reached target shutdown" and hangs there. Expected Results: Powering off the machine. For what it's worth, closing the lid won't suspend the system, but using the menu buttons for suspension will do it.
