My last distribution was 10.04 LTS and it worked perfectly. This problem
occured with 12.04.

No, there are no changes possible.
How could a BIOS issue cause that I can't switch to a terminal after a
while?

What I read there is that there is an issue about the nvidia card driver and
the kernel.
So maybe if you just use a generic driver, it could solve
Ok ok, I'll share your optimism :)
I already experimented a little with the nvidia driver. I switched to
current updates. I am running now version 295.49. It did not help. I
will try to install a generic driver and report then again. But first I
have to find out where to get a generic driver :)
I removed all the nvidia stuff. My first impression: Wow, everythin is
much faster than before!

@ Stefan
I won't count my chickens before they hatch ... but removing the nvidia
driver seems to solve the problem. I started and restarted my notebook
very often after switching to the generic driver.
I can't believe it. I will keep on testing. And I also will test new
drivers.
But so far:
I'm experiencing this bug on my T420 without Optimus. There is no nvidia
stuff on my system so removing the nvidia driver maybe solves the
problem only for someone.

Shutdown hangs on the Ubuntu 12.04 shutdown screen and does not turn
off. A couple of things to note:
1. This problem does not happen all the time. Approximately, for every 4
shutdowns 1 will work and 3 will hang and not complete. The Ubuntu
shutdown screen does not display correctly on the 3
Day 3:
Yesterday I did a BIOS configuration on 2 PCs: I told BIOS to load the

I've had this problem with 12.04 for a while. Had no idea what caused
it. Found a fix in ubuntuforums renaming priorities in upstart scripts

Struggled on recent install until I noticed reboot/shutdown worked when
dropping to tty1 and stopping lightdm
First testrun today:
2 PCs never powered off after shut down

I've installed Linux Mint 13 (Maya) Ubuntu 12.04 based on 6 PCs for

I'll try the other PCs and tell you if it also worked...

so all 7 PCs power off finally!

indicator-session calls the consolekit shutdown interface, which uses

now'. So it doesn't look like there's any indicator-session bug here.

I also have a GeForce 8600 GT. I recently reverted to version 290.10 of
nvidia's binary driver because of Bug #973096 (random Xorg crashes.)
The reversion also seems to have solved my problems powering off the
system and changing to tty. It might be a coincidence, though.
