You have been subscribed to a public bug: Basically, if I shutdown soon after login on, my system shuts down and powers off ok but it I use the system for any prolonged time and try to shutdown, it hangs at the very last minuites. Based on the advice from Bug #985471, I modified /etc/default/grub, changing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="reboot=pci quiet splash"
Having done this, I am able to reboot my system however long I have been using it. So my current shutdown routine is, first reboot and wait for the login screen, then from there shutdown. Thanks for your help.
