You have been subscribed to a public bug: Kernel 2.6.32-24 regression. My system freezes at shutdown, during the dots countdown (when the third dot change from white to red).
Kernel 2.6.32-21 (default image on my 10.04 installation) does not freeze the system at shutdown. Kernel 2.6.32-24, I have edited the /etc/grub with the parameter "nomodset". The system did not freeze at shutdown, but it was barely usable (black screen instead of a background image, grub2 heavily flickering). The parameter "acpi=off" had no effect, the system froze at shutdown. Please instruct with the commands to troubleshoot this bug ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: Incomplete -- Kernel 2.6.32-24 regression - Lucid 10.04 Freezes at Shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/613897 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
