Not sure this is the same bug but : Recent desktop system (AMD Sempron, NVidia chipset) which was shutting down perfectly with Feisty now sporadically hangs on shutdown after upgrade to Gutsy (kernel 2.6.22-14-generic).
Not easy for me to be very specific, the machine is 400 miles away, it's a friend's machine which I administer from remote using SSH and of course I have no access to it when hanged on shutdown... According to the reports I got from her, machine stays forever on shutdown splash screen and nothing else happens. I have remotely deactivated the splash screen in grub's menu.lst to see if it can help or check last system messages from now on. Syslog doesn't show anything special after such a hang. She reported to me having had some filesystem errors reported at mount time after a forced reboot in such situation, so that's possible that hanging happens before the system is actually completely down. Machine uses the NVIdia proprietary X11 driver as well as ndiswrapper + sis163u driver for a Wi-Fi USB thing and I was suspecting one of them to be the cause of the issue - I've seen that losing the Wi-Fi connection sometimes hangs the system in Gutsy where it wouldn't happen in Feisty, although the "Windows" driver used by ndiswrapper is the same, so I was suspecting something weird could happen when shutting down networking. -- Gutsy shutdown doesn't https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119308 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
