Public bug reported: I have ASUS ROG GL552v core i7hq and nvidia geforce 960m. I recently installed ubuntu 14.04 and the system worked perfectly except for the resolution and some minor issues since the hardwares are quite recent for 14.04. However, I could shutdown quite well and there was no unnecessary noise. I upgraded to 16.04 only to discover that I could not shutdown the laptop or restart unless I manually shutdown with the on/off button. Also, the laptop starts making noise which i guess is from the cpu fans immediately after booting up, the noise doesn't stop untill I manually shutdown the system. I recall that while finalizing the upgrade, the system stuck at the point with message 'clearing orphaned inodes'. after several minutes without clearing the inodes, it displayed a message 'NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#5 stuck for 23s! [plymouthd:305] '. it kept bringing out this message repeatedly even when i left it running for more than an hour until i manually shutdown with the button. I would appreciate any help in resolving this issues. THanks
