[lucid] unable to shutdown

[Seth Hikari]

No matter what I do I can't complete the shutdown process I have to remove the power from my computer.

I attached a video of me running

sudo shutdown now

I was able to shutdown in Karmic

On my laptop (Acer Aspire 5535) the shutdown or reboot say's:

hal main process (683) terminated with status 1
avahi-deamon main process (688) terminated with status 255
modem-manager: caught signal 15, shutting down
init: Disconnected from system bus

After this nothing happens and I must switch the laptop hardware off.
Karmic has no problems, it's only in 10.04.

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

Yes this is what I see too most of the time. I believe it is the same bug.

[Christopher (soft-kristal)]

Same with both computers with Lucid partitions. The desktop has a GeForce 6400 graphic card and will no longer boot. It hangs; displaying the desktop after several minutes (previously about 12 seconds) and has nothing in the panels.

I cannot boot at all on that computer in Recovery mode but can access the terminal via Ctrl+Alt+F2 in the hanged boot.

[Surbhi Palande (csurbhi)]

@Christopher, your problem seems to be different than this bug. Please file another bug for your issue.

[Surbhi Palande (csurbhi)]

@Seth Hikari, Thanks for the video and the bug report. Can you please confirm if this problem persists for the latest Lucid image (i.e daily build or alpha 2) ?

[Kim Tucker (ktucker)]

On Portégé R600-10Q shutdown freezes with:

init: Disconnected from system bus
init: plymouth post-start process (12485) killed by TERM signal

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

@Surbhi Palande
Yes I have just re-upgaded to Lucid again and this bug still persists in the daily builds.

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

Now it seems while it is stuck if I press ctr-alt-delete I get alsa-mixer-save (foo#) caught signal 1
Every time I hit it same thing with different. process ID
That should help

[emarkay (mrk)]

I get periodic partial closing - exits "X" and then hangs on a line (something like error 15 - I will document next time it happens). No recourse but to power off manually. This happens on 2 different machines - and yes I have uninstalled Plymouth.

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

OH! I know what this is! maybe... So one time when I noticed that my computer booted with networking disabled I am able to shut down.

[Pavol Klačanský (pavolzetor-deactivatedaccount)]

me too, I have Thinkpad T500, I have to hold shutdown button to turn off laptop

[Waldgeist_dI (noway)]

I experience a similar problem an a Lucid system (32 bit) installed with the Alpha 2 ISO and updated via apt ever since.

sudo reboot now

works, but

sudo shutdown -hP now

only ends the GUI, leaving a completely blank screen.

C+A+D produced a message about alsa-mixer for a split-second, then the machine reboots instead of shutting down.

[mf (mat-fletcher)]

this is the same bug as this right? --> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/418509?comments=all

[Jones D. Le (joneslee85)]

I confirm this on my IBM X200.

[Pavol Klačanský (pavolzetor-deactivatedaccount)]

I have 2.6.34-020634rc1-generic kernel and lucid hangs on shutdown

[Vanishing (vanishing)]

Samething happens to my t500 lucid install, 32 bit..
init errors when shutdown

[double (doppelbauer)]

I have a Acer K70A - powerdown works perfekt in Karmic (and before).
Powerdown in Lucid -> Reboot.

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

Could everyone this effects please attach output from

lspci

Thanks

[Vanishing (vanishing)]

I just tried the 64 version of ubuntu 10.04, both shutdown and reboot works, but it freezes for 10 secs or so before it really shutdown/reboot..

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

looks like you were not suffering from the same bug, still have issues on the latest build that I think may be caused with a problem with ralink wirless chips. As I get a traceback dealing with RT2600 drivers

[Waldgeist_dI (noway)]

The problem still exists for me. Reboot works, Shutdown ends the GUI, but the screen with 10.04 and the four dots stay visible forever. I connected to the box from my laptop via ssh and looked for zombies in "top" but couldn't find any. So the system was still running and accessible with ssh. Issuing "shutdown -hP now" worked from the ssh connection, the system did shutdown with that second instruction.

As requested the output from "lspci"

This time I tried to shutdown the system remotely only by a ssh connection. The first "shutdown -hP now" brought up the now familiar screen with

Ubuntu 10.04
   . . . .

with those four dots changing their color and closed the ssh connection but the system hung there, anyway. I had to connect to the box a second time. Another shutdown command yielded the information about alsa again, then the system went down (this time without rebooting!)

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

Yay a breakthrough! I have finished the upstream testing and confirmed that this bug is not present in the Linux kernel 2.6.34-rc2.

I hope that a backport of kernel 2.6.33 into Lucid which I believe was already planed to be an option will fix this issue.

I encourage all who are experiencing this bug to test the upstream kernel as well. I followed these steps using the optional Ubuntu configuration.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

If some one whom this effects would like to test to see if the problem exists in Fedora 12( updated so as to have 2.6.32 not 2.6.31 ) and see if the problem is there as well that would be great, also Fedora alpha but I am not to sure on the kernel version.

[Nano (fermace1)]

Like this:

init: Disconnected from system bus
init: plymouth post-start process (12485) killed by TERM signal

in Dell Inspiron 1750.

[Vanishing (vanishing)]

This was solved for me by upgrading to the newest kernel(32.19).

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

@Vanishing I have tested teh 32.19 Kernel and the problem still exists for me, may be different bug but grats for you

Problem is not in the new R3 kernel either

@Nano , does it hang there until you remove the power?

[Nano (fermace1)]

@Seth Hikari, yes.

But I installed the kernel v2.6.34-rc1 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com, just to test, and the problem disappeared. Tomorrow I'll try to test the right way to do like you mentioned a few posts behind.

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

You have done it just fine if you got the Kernel to install I only had to follow the Ubuntu instructions because of a Kernel Panic at boot.

This confirms the issue is fixed in Upstream, Backport maybe?

[Nano (fermace1)]

I think it is confirmed.

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

Yes! It is here! 2.6.32-20 Fixed this problem, I hope that it does the same for all of you!

[Fabio Marzocca (thesaltydog)]

My Acer 3810T does not shut down/restart/close session from GUI, with kernel 2.6.32-20 (64bit).
In order to switch off the laptop I need to open a terminal and type 'sudo poweroff'.

I think the problem is related to grants on the user applet...

[Seth Hikari (sethhikari)]

@Fabio

You are experiencing a different bug that you should report, this bug would not let you finish shutting down ever from the terminal.

[Nano (fermace1)]

I think this bug is related to the default video driver. I had the problem because a bug prevented me have the fglrx proprietary driver. When I install the fglrx I solved the problem even with the kernel 2.6.32-19. I think it could be an interesting track for this bug.

[Magnus Kulke (magnus-kulke)]

i have this problem on an 'hp compaq 6715s' laptop. the update to 2.6.32-21-generic did not help.

[Nano (fermace1)]

@Magnus Kulke

Try to install the proprietary driver for your video card.

[Magnus Kulke (magnus-kulke)]

@nano:

i can't. the hardware drivers thingie does not offer any drivers for my card. i installed the fglrx drivers manually, but they do not seem to fit to my hardware (ATI Technologies Inc RS690M).

[Waldgeist_dI (noway)]

For me the problem still persists, as well. And according to the Ubuntu home page the installer from the NVidia driver won't work in the current state of affairs. So I am stuck with the Ubuntu driver for my Geforce 7900GTX. Anything else I can test ...?

[showgun (showgun)]

On my pc and laptop, selecting shut down, or restart from the menu has no effect" but this is not something that repeats all the time

The culprit in my case seems to be cause by the OOo quickstarter
every times the problem happens all I have to do is exit the quickstarter and do the shutdown and it works just fine..
Hope this helps...

[Cymaphore (cymaphore)]

In my case, I resolved it that way:

NetworkManager blocked poweroff.

[Waldgeist_dI (noway)]

For me, shutdown works now with the latest Lucid version, on both platforms (32 and 64 bit). No more problems, as far as I can see.

[denislegrand (denisgg)]

For me shutdown don't works. PC stopped a few seconds then restart. Solutions : press the powerbutton or press 'c' in the grub menu (grub-pc) and command 'halt'.
No /etc/default/kexec in my /

What stop on runlevel [06] is doing ? Do i try it ?
