To Quinn Balazs Sorry to take so long getting back to you about the bug. I've been busy. Shortly after receiving your email I tried the command "Shutdown -r now" in the terminal. The system immediately shutdown and rebooted like it is supposed to do. After that I tried to shutdown Ubuntu from the Desktop and it worked. It has been working ever since then. Whatever condition was set has been reset to a normal shutdown from the desktop. Thanks for your time and effort. Maybe this info will help you find what happened if it is important.

It will not restart or shutdown. The shutdown selection goes to the main login screen. Trying to shutdown from the login screen does nothing. Executing "shutdown" in as root from a terminal cause the computer to hang on the Ubuntu ..... screen. Ubuntu 12.10 on an Intel i3 processor. The shutdown worked before the last round of updates.
