I installed the 3.0.0-12 kernel under Ubuntu 12.04 ("precise"), as per the KernelBisection instructions.
(I did, however, run into a dependency problem, in that the 'linux- headers-3.0.0-12-generic' package depended on 'linux-headers-3.0.0-12', which wasn't listed on the 'https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/linux' page to which the bisection page referred me. I therefore went looking for the missing package in the old oneiric repository, and found it at 'http://old- releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux- headers-3.0.0-12_3.0.0-12.20_all.deb'.) When I subsequently booted Ubuntu 12.04 with this kernel, my computer successfully shut down, even with a USB medium attached. (In other words, same behaviour as Ubuntu 11.10 with this kernel version. So: o The 3.0.0-12 kernel is OK; o The 3.2.0-23 kernel is NOT OK. Guess it's time to start bisecting the kernel versions now? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1618001 Title: My computer reboots instead of shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1618001/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
