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

Is it confirmed that the power down hang problem is caused by the nvidia driver. The reason I ask is because I also have issues with wlan on my PC. If I turn on the router before booting ubuntu the network newer connects. I then have to disable network followed enable network before it works.
