Public bug reported: When I tell Ubuntu to restart the system, it goes through the entire shutdown sequence, then hangs on a blank screen at the point when it would normally reboot the computer. This is a brand new (March 2009) Mac Mini, Intel-based with an Nvidia video card, system ID "Macmini3,1". Telling it to shut down is successful, it does power itself off when the shutdown completes.
I found existing (resolved) bugs on this issue for other machines that suggested adding "reboot=b" to the kernel params as a workaround for this, but that was not successful either.
