Hey, I have just found a workaround by chance: purging xserver-xorg-video- nouveau (without replacing it by a Nvidia driver) from the system removes the freezing issue during shutdown!
That's very strange because the driver is loaded with initrd during the boot, meaning rebooting after the removal does not prevent X Server from using the nouveau driver... without the shutdown issue that was directly caused by the same driver. Maybe someone can shed light on this mystery. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388530 Title: 14.10 freezes during shutdown on MSI GE60 with Nvidia Geforce GTX 765M To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1388530/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
