Public bug reported: I am aware of the thread here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1464917 People there are asking that if you have the same/similar bug to report it separately, so that's what I'm doing. What I've noticed is that my shutdown process hangs as some point, usually with the screen being black or with a single cursor. After >10 mins, the computer will finally shut off. I've had this issue I think since 15.04, definitely in 15.10, and now still in 16.04. I've tried the fix $ sudo systemctl reboot which worked one time, but not another time. I've also tried $ sudo swapoff -a sudo systemctl reboot and that appeared to work, but I haven't tested it enough times to say it always works. For what it's worth, turning off the swap probably took longer than my typical black screen shutdown so it's really not a stopgap fix either way. I know this isn't enough information to be sure I'm having the swap/systemd failure, so let me know what else you need. Thanks. ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1580266 Title: Computer hangs on reboot or shutdown, typically for >10 mins, Ubuntu 16.04 and previous versions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1580266/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
