This happened to me just a few days ago. Yesterday, I reinstalled ubuntu and it worked for a while. Today, however it's started again. The actions that I took during my last login are two numerous to immediately pinpoint which one may have caused it, but the most likely candidate is that right before I tried to shutdown, I had just modified the fstab with the line: /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
i.e. I had just created a fixed mount point for my cd-rom drive to better take advantage of wine. I don't know if this has anything to do with this problem though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880240 Title: ubuntu 11.10 : the system doesn't turn off if "sudo halt" is given To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/880240/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
