I've narrowed down the problem a bit more, and I don't think it's a kernel bug but maybe something with KDE or X Windows...
The system will shutdown and then power off when I do the following: Power on the laptop CNTRL-ALT-F1 to bring up a console Logged in normally Issued the command - "sudo shutdown -h now" It then shuts down and powers off the laptop However, when I click on "K Menu -> Leave -> Shut Down" in KDE (this is Kubuntu 11.10), the system will halt, but not run the poweroff command. I did a Google search and found the following: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1046871.html I edit /etc/default/halt and add a line to remove the Intel sound module so it now looks like this: # Default behaviour of shutdown -h / halt. Set to "halt" or "poweroff". /sbin/rmmod snd_hda_intel HALT=poweroff However, the system won't power off when shut down from KDE. I'm attaching my /var/log/syslog if that will help. I upgraded laptop- mode-tools to 1.58, which resolved the "Unhandled kernel version" error, but doesn't resolve the poweroff issue. ** Attachment added: "syslog" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/881792/+attachment/2579792/+files/syslog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881792 Title: System will not power down after shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/881792/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
