Public bug reported: I've recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 for the first time (never used it before) and for some reason I can't shut down nor restart the computer. Basically it's just as if I clicked "Log Out" instead of "Shut Down" - it appears the option to type my password and enter Ubuntu, but the PC never really shuts down.
PS: Please understand that I'm totally new at Ubuntu (besides not being exactly excellent at working with computers), so I don't really know what you asking me to do at point 1) of the "we also need" section. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010916 Title: can't shutdown computer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1010916/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
