After much tinkering around with updating packages (using update- manager) and doing [dpkg-reconfigure -a] to reconfigure my system, my system will shutdown and reboot properly now. I disabled the nVidia driver and changed to the generic kernel, instead of using the realtime kernel, which fixed the problem temporarily. But when I got the system fully updated, I installed envyng and was able to use that to re-install nVidia drivers. I am still using the Ubuntu generic kernel. I haven't tried re-instating the rt kernel yet. I am using Jaunty, all updates current as of April 5th. My system is behaving properly for now.
