In the time since my last post I reset the bios to defaults. This did not help. I have changed many bios settings. No help. My bios settings are now back to the settings I have used for a long time. I've seen no evidence that a bios setting is causing this problem.
Today I installed Ubuntu 7.10 in a separate partition. That gives me 8.04 and 7.10 on the same system. 7.10 will shutdown as expected. 8.04 will not. Shutdown simply reboots the system in 8.04. There has been a change somewhere in 8.04 that is causing this problem. I am about out of ideas. P.S. I have an update report from the guy I know that uses the same mb as I do (I spoke about this above). When I first reported 8.04 shutdown was working on his system he had just installed 8.04 and tested once. He has since updated me with a report saying that shutdown in not working on his system either. Curiously, he appears to have a different problem. When he selects shutdown the shutdown simply does not complete and his only option is to remove power from the machine. This is new for him as he reports that using 7.10 and early he had no problems with shutdown. -- Selecting "Shut Down" leads to a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234700 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
