Public bug reported: (Please forgive the length of this post, I hope this may be useful to other owners of similar computers)
*Description* After switching from Lubuntu 15.10 to Lubuntu 16.04, I cannot shutdown my (Lenovo A540) computer anymore. The Lubuntu logout screen hangs indefinitely and doesn't react to any (well, at least Ctrl+Backspace, Ctrl+Alt+Fn, Ctrl+D and Ctrl+Alt+Del) keyboard key combination. I thus have to press the power button for a few (~5) seconds in order to shut it down. I didn't have this problem with Lubuntu 15.10, and don't have it with Windows 10 (dual boot), hence I believe it is software-related. *Context* Some context may shed some light about my configuration tweaks. I experienced the following problems with my Lenovo A540: 0.
