Michael Lynch, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Did this problem occur with prior versions of Ubuntu?
** Description changed: Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 Installed Alongside Windows 7 OS I expect the system to power off when using the shutdown commands and GUI (WM_CLASS(STRING) = "gtk-logout-helper", "Gtk-logout-helper") - Using the shutdown commands in terminal and dialog interfaces only cause my laptop to restart + Using the shutdown commands in terminal and dialog interfaces only cause my laptop to restart The only way so far I have found that I can shut down my laptop is to press and hold the power button during reboot (Unsafe) or load other OS to do the restart. - I have attached as much information as I can. If there is any thing else - you need, let me know! + WORKAROUND: My laptop shuts down properly when my AC adapter is NOT + plugged in and running on battery power only.
