I dont think it is the same bug as https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/891149 .
I have tried to kill all wireless devices and programs and disable modules. Nothing seems to work. Yesterday I installed 11.10 Xubuntu again (to Lenovo S205) with the same results. GUI or not, shutdown or poweroff does not work. When I do "shutdown -r 0" as root boot is executed nicely. Says "*Will now reboot" and reboots. On the other hand when I do "shutdown 0" as root the last message in standard output is "*Will now halt..." and then comes Mr. Freeze. I can even hear the hardrive shutting down but then it just freezes. Therefore I think the problem is in somewhere between Halt and hardware. I have also tried to print messages from syslog, dmesg, kern.log when shutting down, but there seems to be nothing connected to this problem. There are a lot of similar kind of problems with 11.10 so hope this will be fixed soon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882817 Title: shutdown screen stuck after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/882817/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
