I have tried to kill all wireless devices and programs and disable modules. Nothing seems to work.
Yesterday I installed 11.10 Xubuntu again (to Lenovo S205) with the same results. GUI or not, shutdown or poweroff does not work.
When I do "shutdown -r 0" as root boot is executed nicely. Says "*Will now reboot" and reboots.
On the other hand when I do "shutdown 0" as root the last message in standard output is "*Will now halt..." and then comes Mr. Freeze. I can even hear the hardrive shutting down but then it just freezes.
Therefore I think the problem is in somewhere between Halt and hardware.
I have also tried to print messages from syslog, dmesg, kern.log when shutting down, but there seems to be nothing connected to this problem. There are a lot of similar kind of problems with 11.10 so hope this will be fixed soon.
I dont think it is the same bug as https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/bugs/ 891149 .
