I'm seeing exactly the same problem, on Feisty with the 2.6.20-15-generic kernel (running SMP), on a Dell Precision 620 (dual Pentium III). After a fresh Feisty install it seemed to shutdown/reboot fine about 4-5 times, but now it's freezing at the "sending all processes the KILL signal" point. I've left it in this state for hours, and it gets no further, and I eventually have to reboot or do a hard shutdown (and upon reboot my ReiserFS partitions need their journals replaying).
Prior to re-installing Feisty, my machine got progressively less reliable with these hard power-downs, to the point where I couldn't boot up without having to run fsck manually from the super user mode. I'd be very keen to see this fixed, or at least discover a suitable workaround in the meantime. I hate having to hard power-down every time I use the machine. -- PC does not power down after shutdown or hibernate https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104868 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
