Hi Saïvann, Sorry about this; it's all got pushed into the background by other things.
1. If you disable usplash from the Grub menu.lst file, do you still get this problem (I just want to make sure). Yes, the problem remains, though if I can switch cleanly into a virtual terminal (Alt+F1) there is no problem shutting down from there. Very occasionally, however, making that switch induces the white-out and lock-up! Interestingly if it is the first shutdown after a white-out and lock-up the 'halt' process always hangs for a while at shutting down gnome-desktop before continuing. Once a clean halt has been accomplished the gnome-desktop shuts down immediately and the process goes normally. 2. At shutdown, do you get any error messages? If yes, can you copy the errors here? I don't know: along with the 'white out' is a complete freeze (I know I lose all my bash history). 3. Can you attach your /var/log/kern.log file? Yes, but not right now (I'm not on that machine). 4. Can you attach the file created by this command on a terminal? lspci -nnvv > lspci.txt Yes (but as above). -- [kubuntu edgy and feisty] usplash_down causes shutdown to hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71004 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
