Hi all, Following up on this again as the issue persists in 14.10.
To recap: When i go to shutdown my system - through whatever means (terminal, GUI etc.) - the system restarts. The issue only occurs if i have suspended the system since last starting the machine. If i have not suspended, everything shuts down fine. Problem was in 12.04, 12.10, 13.04, 13.10, 14.04 and now in 14.10. There was a brief period in 14.04, when things were working, but an update broke things again. Something must be triggering this process when i suspend the machine. If anyone could help me identify it, i would be very grateful. Thanks, James. p.s. running 14.10, 64bit on an Intel Thinkpad x131e.
