Bug Description
Hi, when you try to shut down the system, it logs off the gui, gets to the shell, and then stays stuck there. This happens after a fresh install of the system. I followed the bug 468589, and was told to report a new but. The information I posted there is as follows:
Hello guys,
I was having this problem from a fresh install of karmik in a laptop along with XP. As rebooting the system and then turning it off from windows was a workaround, I never payed much more attention. But today I wiped the hard disk, did a fresh installation (no XP anymore), and upgrade of all packages - all of this straigh in 9.10 - . And again the same problem. it does restart properly, but it does not shut down. I´ve activated the karmic-proposed repositories, updated the system, and same issue. I tried also editing s40umount removing the -f option.
It´s the first time I´m using launchpad to report a problem, and it is because I haven´t find any other solution. If I can provide you with any information that may help you please let me know (my machine is an acer extensa 3000)
thanks.
