Whether this will help or not.... I think i should share Problem at shutdown failure at deactivating Swap.... Solved on Karmic Ubuntu
After over a month, desperately searching the INTERNET launchpad and wherever the search engines took me. I found the solution for my system. It is so simple I'm surprised none of the experts of the many many forums ever suggested it. I forced my system off, i restarted to bios and power it off from there, tried to modify scripts and power down using various commands, yet it all failed, the hours & hours wasted. After almost giving up & waiting for the next major update to Lucid Lynx meaning months to shutdown my system properly (silly but well what can i say) OK to the point.... which really really doesn't make me happy.... because of its simplicity. I decided to find some shutdown tools in the hope that an advanced tool might help... So I Entered Synaptic Package Manager Did a search... typed shut (& of course the results had a few tools for shutting down) or you can search initscripts which is my solution 1. I right clicked (sweet no command line) 2. Mark for re-installation (sweet so simple) 3. Apply & let the task complete 4. Reboot / perhaps shutdown & your computer powers off itself (You must love technology that turns off when you tell it to) As a new user, why of why didn't anyone say i could have reinstalled that, i was thinking how to reinstall shutdown but didn't know the term i needed. I'd be interested to know, does this solve a -- Shutdown Fails To Complete https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
