Public bug reported:

After doing an update to Ubuntu 13.04, the laptop wwould go thru the
motions of shutting down but would NOT complete the shutdown.  The drive
light continues to flicker and the 2 status lights on the front of the
laptop remain lit.  I tried to correct this issue by installing Ubuntu
13.10 from a DVD over the existing Ubuntu 13.04.  This was before I saw
all the problems showing up with the release.  It installed but had some
options that had to be corrected.  The machine still will not after
getting several updates since.  This machine is set up as a dual-boot
with Windows Vista.  The Windows side shutsdown without any issues.
This shutdown  problem affects the lptop and not my Zotac desktop
machine.  It appears to be a problem in the shutdown of laptops and not
desktop machines.

The only way I can shut it down or reboot the machine is to HARD
Shutdown the machine and then press the POWER button to start it back
up.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
