Hello, I'm a bit doubtful about the cairo-dock link as I do not have it installed. The problem appeared after upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04. The system does shutdown but does not power off. Instead it displays the Ubuntu splash screen with the 5 alternate flashing red dots. I have to then hard power off the pc (it is a laptop). Trying 'sudo shutdown -h now' (also tried -P) did not solve the problem. I've also tried a number of other proposed 'solutions' that I found searching about the problem to no avail.
