Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

Please correct me if this is the wrong place to report this bug...

Every since I installed Natty 64 beta 1 on my machine, the computer would periodically fail to shut down or restart maybe 50% of the time. The screen would simply go black after the DE was killed and eventually the fans would start spinning... I'm fairly new to linux so I wasn't able to find any logging info to help me find the issue, however, I finally tracked it down today! It turns out bluetooth was failing to stop and preventing shut down (I figured this out by noticing the wifi led on my dell xps m1530 would switch off while the bluetooth led would stay on).

I've since disabled bluetooth through my bios and everything has been running smoothly since! I've done more than 20 reboots without a hitch in the last hour....

When somebody gets to this report they should consider it a fairly high priority because I did not have this issue with Lucid or Maverick so it must be something new in Natty (maybe the new Kernel or a new driver??)..
