Hi Christopher, thanks for your instructions. I ran your tests as well as I could.
The daily development .iso (Quantal) and the latest kernel (3.4.0--999) both seem to restart and shut down correctly; The development release produced internal errors, and the kernel broke all my internet access, so I was a little limited with the amount of testing I could do, but I restarted or shut down each of them several times from the log in screen, Unity and Gnome Shell. Interestingly, the current 12.04 live disk restarts the computer correctly, and the computer restarts correctly after the installation process. Thereafter, the problem is intermittent but frequent in the installed system. I am not convinced that the bug is fixed upstream, but I did not observe it under the testing that I did. ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags added: kernel-fixed-upstream -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004293 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 fails to shut down the hardware.
