Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 8.04
Upgraded from 7.10 by update manager. System would not shutdown or log off at
splash screen. Splash screen disappears and the background is displayed but
nothing else. Pressing the machine's power button produces a black screen with
messages as follows
Starting anac(h)ronistic cron anacron [OK]
Starting battery check [OK]
plus several others
then error messages about Network Manager which appear too quick to read.
I then did a fresh install from the Ubuntu 8.04 DVD, formatting the /root
partition but keeping my /home partition. The problem disappeared. I installed
a couple of packages - Bluefish and Filezilla then used the Network Settings to
set up a Static IP address, installed Samba and pyNeighbourhood to connect to a
Windows machine. Following that the problem returned.
