Title:
Computer Reboots Instead of Halting
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I recently installed a new motherboard (
http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/QC5000-ITXPH/ ) with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and
now when I try to shutdown my system reboots instead. I have tried a
variety of shutdown methods including:
sudo init 0
sudo shutdown -P now
sudo shutdown now
sudo shutdown -h now
sudo shutdown -H now
sudo shutdown -HP now
(all previous variants with "now" replaced with "1")
shutting down via the KDE menu (clicking the menu, clicking 'leave' section,
clicking shutdown in the dialog box).
All of these cause the system to reboot, when I expect that the system
should shutdown. The system can shutdown only if I hold the power
button for 5 seconds (hard shutdown). I have dug around in the bios,
nothing in there seems to help. I even tried changing random features
(things related to wake on lan, etc) after reading that some specific
IRQs may be causing the problem.
Here is the output of lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.

Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS

Codename: trusty
and uname -a
Linux livingroom 3.16.0-49-generic #65~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 9 10:03:23

I have also attached a zip of my entire /var/log directory so you
don't have to ask for my logs one at a time. Keep in mind that this
bug happens everytime I try to shutdown, which I do more than once a
day on average. I frequently shutdown and then hold the power button
when the reset occurs, thereby causing a hard reset before the kernel
has loaded when it is safest. This is an annoying workaround.
