[Bug 987220] Re: System does not power off reliably when Shut Down chosen from GUI
At last tried it myself and - with NVidia proprietary driver back installed - problem is present. The solution i've got seems not working for me neither. So i suppose it does work in some cases - but is not (and shouldn't be treated as) solving the issue for everyone. For now i don't have NVidia installed and things are fine, graphic improved a little with recent updates. So we may not need proprietary drivers at all in the future, being fully replaced by system default ones. But it doesn't mean that we're defeated - there MUST be some way to fix it! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987220 Title: System does not power off reliably when Shut Down chosen from GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/987220/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi again, just by accident found on some foreign ubuntu forum solution that might be checked out; i have to leave right now so cannot play with it - but if someone wants, feel free to try. They say it's acpi issue and it has to be switched on in GRUB GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=acpi=on sudo update-grub they maintain that it works on Dell laptops -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987220 Title: System does not power off reliably when Shut Down chosen from GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/987220/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Lads - this is NOT my solution, just found it browsing other potential sources. It comes from polish Ubuntu forum. Topic was closed so i presumed they've sorted it out. I'm so glad it works, soon will try on my own XPS M1530. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987220 Title: System does not power off reliably when Shut Down chosen from GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/987220/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

In my case - uninstalling all proprietary NVidia drivers solved the problem (Dell XPS M1530) but have to put up with rather crappy graphic; SMPlayer doesn't work and launcher icons pretty big (it can be fixed though) - but at least system shuts down no problem and it was the aim. We just have to be patiens i suppose and wait for a final solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987220 Title: System does not power off reliably when Shut Down chosen from GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/987220/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
