penalvch and jsalisbury, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v3.13-rc3-trusty/ solved the problem of shutdown-reboot loop.
However, I had tp-smapi-dkms installed on my system, during the installation of rc3 it was throwing an error message regarding DKMS (I do not exactly remember the error message). So, I uninstalled the tp- smapi-dkms and re-isntalled the rc3 kernel. Now the shutdown works as expected. Moreover, I was using cpufreq-indicator app, after installing rc3 (and unistalling tp-smapi-dkms), the indicator app stopped working (does not show the current cpu-speed, instead it's showing "0.00 GHz"). Shoudl I reinstall tp-smapi-dkms? If yes, will it cause any conflict with rc3? Should I submit a separate bug-report for this? Please let me know. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** 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/1261886 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad S431] Boots up after shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1261886/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
