shutdown fails

[ReimarBauer]

ubuntu 9.0.4

shutdown fails and shows:

acpid exiting mm-system-settings SCPlugin-ifupdown: devices removed (udi:/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/net_xx)

[ReimarBauer (reimarbauer)]

that happens always for a user without admin group or by calling reboot from su -
currently the workaround is to use locally the magic sys key for reboot.

I look tom. if I still have it on an uptodate 9.04 or recent 10.04

[Fabio Marconi (fabiomarconi)]

Thanks

[ReimarBauer (reimarbauer)]

ok, i have some 9.04 systems where it still happens and some which do continue to reboot after some minutes.
I have not checked 10.04 yet.

How can I help to track this bug down? I have no idea how I can use the common reporting tools for this case.

cheers

Hello Reimar
Have you burned a CD from a downloaded image ?
Have you verified if the md5sums of the downloaded and burned image match ?
Fabio

Hi ReimarBauer,

Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ . If the issue remains, please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 387675

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
