I would love to answer you Christopher M. Penalver (penalvch), but I no longer own the machine that had this issue. I owned the Acer Aspire 10.1" AO531h. It would shut down properly but not restart properly. I bought the Compaq CQ57 229wm model, and it no longer had this issue.
So it is clearly linked to the hardware on the Aspire. I mention again though that at that time, the Aspire worked beautifully with virtually all other Linux distributions, it just didn't work with Ubuntu 12.04. -Denny -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1019496 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 hangs on reboot Status in The Linux Kernel: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: My Acer Aspire 10.1" AO531h will shutdown just fine, but if you reboot, it hangs just as it is about to repost and start again. It will sit there with the led's all on for infinity. I am posting this because this is an Ubuntu bug only. Several other distro's reboot just fine, as well as older versions of Ubuntu. Here is a link to information posted from about an older version of Ubuntu, 11.10. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/880116 I add this because nothing really has changed from the problem on 11.10. -Denny --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
